Circumnavigating Vancouver Island 2024

Back in 2003, we circumnavigated Vancouver Island, capturing wonderful memories. Now in 2024 we hope to re-visit this large island, and create some new memories!

Hot Springs Cove

Leaving Friendly Cove, we headed for Hot Springs Cove for a dip. After heavy seas and moderate winds, we sailed for the last five miles. The walk to the Hot Springs is 1-1/4 miles on a new boardwalk through old growth forest. We had the Springs to ourselves and our friend Janet Williams for a relaxing half hour. As we were stepping out of Hot Springs (50 degrees Centigrade), the tidal waters started coming in from the ocean. We were out in the nick of time!
