Tours start as low as $49/person and include instruction, kayak and gear. Double kayaks available to paddle with a friend or a younger family member.

Little Qualicum Falls Provincial Park straddles the scenic Little Qualicum River, west of Parksville, where impressive waterfalls cascade and plummet down a rocky gorge in a beautiful forest setting.
Perhaps the most magnificent park on Vancouver Island, Little Qualicum Falls incorporates the entire southern shore of Cameron Lake, adjacent to MacMillan Provincial Park and the awesome Cathedral Grove Rainforest. Cameron Lake is bordered by steep mountains: Mt. Wesley to the north and Mt. Arrowsmith to the south.

"There are two 18 hole mini golf courses here and the day we went they were both hopping!
This is an older style course, with windmill, pirate ship and clock feature holes. The atmosphere is a bit of old carnival-style cheezy, but that may be part of the allure.
I liked that there were benches and ..."things to look at along the course to say busy while waiting for the folks in front of us to finish the hole.
I did not like passing through the gift shop to enter and exit the course.
The course was not as challenging as some, but well loved by the kids.

"nice day but a stiff breeze and waves a little higher than we're used to. without a guide we would not have gone out that day and missed a great 4 hour trip. affordable, good instruction , good equipment and fun."
"We had never taken our kids kayaking before. Jan helped organize a trip for us and our two children, ages 2 and 3. It was great, and the Sea Lions were a huge (albeit noisy) hit! She was organized, competent and safe. Highly recommended!"
