Nanaimo Adventure Center

Nanaimo, BC
Next to the BC Ferries Terminal @ Departure Bay
When:
Closed for the winter. For rental enquiries please phone the Nanaimo Retail Store.
Why:
Urban Paddle, History Parks, and Island Expeditions!
Located on the Nanaimo waterfront at the Brechin Boat Launch. This Adventure Center is a literal stone's throw from the historic 336 hectare (830 acres) New Castle Island Provincial Marine Park.
Following the coast to the North is the dream of urban paddling. Beautiful homes perched above small parks and lagoons and tiny islets with mysterious sandstone formations.
To the South through the old Nanaimo harbour lies Dodds Narrows, the tidal rapids which act as a gatekeeper to the Gulf Islands. Rich in history, these islands stretch the length of the southern Vancouver Island area.
The Gulf Islands are home to First Nations historical sites, old staging grounds for the Rum Runners and the abandoned compound of the 1920's cult of Brother XII.
