Circumnavigating Vancouver Island

[Michael Davis]

I'll explore for a few days before I round Brooks Peninsula.

There are so many great places to see. We manage to anchor in different places every time around. Must sees in Quatsino Sound include Pamphlet Cove ,Julian Cove and the Marble River. Fuel at Winter Harbour or Coal Harbour. Groceries at Port Alice. Have fun!

Choose your weather wisely when rounding Brooks Peninsula. Go well out into the ocean. The area has its own weather pattern. Due to the way this massive extends out into the Pacific, the typical NW breeze can become gale-force winds.

We left Hootla-Kootla for a quick trip up Sydney Inlet to Bottleneck Cove. A couple of sunny days here and we are on the move again. So far no smoke from forest fires.

August 14 we made are way to Bacchante Bay for the forecast rainy weather. Weatherman was right, lots of rain which I’m sure helped the fire situation on the island.

Entrance to Bacchante Bay.
Beautiful place even in poor weather
