We’ll sea kayak up the Alberni inlet from China Creek to Port Alberni’s working harbour, past working logging operations, fishing boats and leisure sailboats to the fully operational mill, where you’ll get a water’s edge view of an operating paper mill. We’ll also paddle past a bird sanctuary, where you might see great blue herons, eagles, and numerous ducks and gulls. In the hills beyond you’ll see the town of Port Alberni, Mount Arrowsmith and Mount Klitsa, with its striking white glacier against the deep green west coast forests. We’ll stop for a gourmet picnic lunch along the way, and provide snacks throughout the day. This is a great introductory sea kayak trip in the sheltered inlet, with plenty of natural and urban sights to feast your eyes on, and to introduce you to the valley from a different perspective.

We're located in Port Alberni on Highway 4 - the Pacific Rim Highway. Across the road is Clutesi Marina, where fishing boats are launched to go out the Alberni Inlet to the open Pacific Ocean. Some of our sea kayaking day trips start from here. We rent Seaward sea kayaks and Rocky Mountain Bicycles. Shuttle service for Log Train Trail. Batstar is surrounded by walking trails along the Somass River and the paved trails along Kitsuksis Dyke. This is all part of an estuary where you can see all sorts of bird life and the occasional Black Bear. 5 species of Salmon swim in the Somass. Grab lunch from Batstar Cafe & Picnic and sit on the benches and relax by the river.
