It is a small group of islands well known by kayakers and boaters travelling to Desolation Sound. Most summer travellers, pass between the islands and the Malaspina Peninsula on their way to Desolation Sound , without stopping and sometimes without even slowing down. What they are missing is a beautiful outcrop of islands surrounded by clear waters full of sea life.
The main anchorage is small but well protected from the weather. Anchoring is on a rocky bottom and when the busy season arrives, a stern tie to shore will be the norm for most.
The elusive Que Sera - Seen in her natural setting.
Que Sera, along with her many other roles, is a mothership for our kayaks. The many islands and relatively protected waters of the copelands provides hours of kayakng adventures. The marine life highlights are the starfish and sea cucumbers. The rocky shores have countless types and colours of starfish, some carefully attached to the shore and others found in heaps, one upon another. Eagles, Oystercathers, ducks, geese and yes, even seagulls, fly the open skys around the park.

Rick and Celiedh out for a paddle.
If you are so inclined, you can yacht watch and see anything from kayaks to mega yachts.
A big thumbs up for this little gem of Marine Parks.
Bye for now.
