Take an exclusive panoramic flight in an amphibious aircraft above the lush old growth forests and mountainous terrain of British Columbia towards the rugged west coast of Vancouver Island. Touch down at the Nootka Wilderness Resort and settle into your private lodgings in this all-inclusive adventure.
Substitute the rush of morning traffic for the sounds of the ocean and awaken with a fresh perspective for the adventures which await you on the nearby seas. Experience the thrill of 'the catch' on one of two Grady White Fishing Expeditions, taking you into the abundant waters of the Pacific for some of the world's preeminent salmon fishing. Explore the spectacular tidal pools along the Sound's beaches, and the luxurious amenities of your resort before taking another panoramic flight to the stunning wilderness of Sonora Island. Stay at the renowned Sonora Resort; take off on a guided eco-tour and visit the Homalco Grizzly Bear Habitat (in season) or embark on an unforgettable whale watching expedition.
