Kayak Camp Indian Arm

Setting out from Deep Cove’s pebble shoreline, it only takes a few minutes before you are away from small village and paddling the calm waters of this gorgeous arm. Seals can be frequently spotted as you follow the path of off oceanfront homes, some living off the grid, deeper into the mountains. Thick green forests are interrupted by pristine waterfalls. This paddle is continually surrounded by the seasonally snow capped North Shore Mountains rising dramatically from the clear blue waters.

After 3-5 hours, or 19km of paddling you’ll reach Granite Falls. A massive waterfall with a grassy campground to call home for a night or two. Don’t be surprised if you get a rain shower or two on your journey, and if in summer, expect there to be a fair amount of boat traffic. This trip can be done year round, just pack accordingly and watch the tide charts to make sure you don't have to paddle to hard against the current.

Before or after your trip, there are tons of places to fuel up. Fish 'n chips, ice cream or the always popular Honey Donuts, which offers delicious donuts and more hearty options.
