The Deer Group is an island archipelago that starts at the east end of Barkley Sound and continues southwest to Bamfield, which is also the end of the West Coast Trail, the south section of Pacific Rim National Park. The paddling is more exposed than the Broken Group Islands as Imperial Eagle Channel is exposed to the open Pacific Ocean. The lee side of the islands offer protection however both sides can be enjoyed when the weather and sea state cooperate. Hidden beaches and sea arches are some of the gems of this quiet area.

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.
