Tofino Sea Kayak

Paddling towards Strathcona mountainsNear the end of our holiday in Ucluelet we booked onto a guided sea kayak trip. This was a group outing, with five clients and one instructor - by coincidence all of the clients were British.
Small starfishWe headed out into Clayoquot Sound and paddled towards the distant mountains of Strathcona Park. We didn't see any big wildlife (just one seal) but there were loads of birds, including nesting bald eagles with a juvenile, and the biggest starfish I've ever seen - almost a metre across! The trip was awesome and it's definitely something I'd like to go back and do more of.
