Rugged yet serene, the south and east coasts of Vancouver Island are unlike anywhere else. Wave-sculpted rocks, sea caves and fjords, old-growth forests, incredible wildlife, and white, sandy beaches make this an unbeatable destination. From a veteran kayaker and outdoors expert, who has explored the BC coastline himself, comes this must-have collection of full-colour maps, all from a paddler's perspective. This large-book format is easier to use and stow than bulky charts and unwieldy roll-up maps. Kimantas himself remarks that his life would have been much easier had one of these been available for his own kayak trips! The features and attractions included in these maps are numerous. You'll see all the campsites, rest areas, launch sites, anchorages, private marinas, government wharves, ferry terminals, and lighthouses, as well as the possible hazards of each area. Also included are the key places to see killer whales, grizzlies, sea lions, and birds and to explore heritage sites, ruins, sunken ships, trails, and parks. Colour photographs right on the maps provide visual clues and added beauty.
  • Awesome set of maps, great quality, all the details are there, including locations of towns, camping areas, all you would want to know. Fantastic tool on the trip and for planning.

  • A friend and I have been planning a circumnavigation of Vancouver Island by kayak. We concluded that this was a great substitute for caring lots of charts.

    Great features:
    Already marked and color coded for important features.
    Legend for Symbols.
    Shows; various campsites, marinas, trails, Picnic, IR, boat ramps and more
    Shows some geographical features such as intertidal zones, rocks, creeks and rocks.
    Waterproof
    Compact

    Negative features:
    No elevation lines and water depth.
    Charts are more detailed in showing geographic and bathymetric features.
    I found one error on page 45. East Thurlow I and West Thurlow Island have been switched.

    Over all I recommend the BC Atlas as a companion to charts and quick and easy reference on the water.
