Founded in 1985, Gulf Island Kayaking is a family owned and operated tour and rental company offering half-day, full-day, and multi-day guided kayak adventures as well as quality kayaks, canoes and paddleboards for hire out of Montague Harbour Marina on Galiano Island.
As the original kayak outfitter in the Southern Gulf Islands, we expressly chose Galiano Island as our base because of the exceptional beauty of its undeveloped coastline, the abundance of diverse wildlife, and the reliable tranquility of its sheltered waters.
55 minutes away from Vancouver
Beautiful undeveloped Shoreline
Two provincial camping parks and nearby marine parks
Our popular 3 – 6 hr guided tours depart multiple times a day in summer, and are available daily throughout the year, when reserved ahead of time. Enjoy the natural history and wildlife along the shorelines and nearby islands as well as seal rookeries.
