  • Details

The information-packed Dreamspeaker Cruising Guide series covers the most significant and accessible cruising areas of the southern inside passage, and has become an essential reference for British Columbia boaters.

Volume 1 covers the Gulf Islands and Vancouver Island from Sooke and Victoria to Nanaimo. The Gulf Islands lie sheltered just off southeast Vancouver Island’s mountainous backbone. This closely connected group of islands borders the southern Strait of Georgia, offering protected waters and one of the most temperate climates in Canada.

Visitors will be charmed by each island’s distinctive character and lured by clean sandy beaches, cozy bays, hideaway anchorages and spectacular sunsets. In addition, the area’s marine parks and National Park Reserves are unique to British Columbia’s coast and often only accessible by water. Most of the Gulf Islands offer full-service marinas and boating facilities while managing to retain their relaxed charm.

With over one hundred hand-drawn charts and up-to-date information alongside stunning colour photographs, this completely revised edition provides detailed knowledge of each anchorage and marina, including the latest advice about fuel docks and available services, as well as marine parks to explore and much more.
