Grand Tour 2006
 
Duncanby Lodge & Marina, Powell River, B.C.
(Read the LogBlog entry from Duncanby Landing)

A full day crossing the strait brings you to Duncanby Landing. Rich in coastal history, Duncanby is a wonderful place to take in sunsets and a wide variety of coastal sea life. Rivers Inlet is host to dolphins, whales and orcas. (Witnessing the towering fluke of a whale about to sound is an experience you won't soon forget!)

Duncanby Landing has been a commercial fishing camp since the 1930s. The fishermen are unfailingly polite and full of local knowledge. In 2005, the Duncanby Lodge & Marina was bought by new owners. The marina recently added a new dock to increase their moorage capacity, with plans to extend power to the new docks in the near future. The restaurant is excellent, and the new ownership does everything first-class, impressive for such a remote location.
