Disappear To Another World When You Experience Adventures At A Haida Gwaii Lodge

By Ericka Marsh


There are times when a simple vacation is not enough. The sportsman, naturalist, artist and searching spirit all crave that singular adventure that will remind them of how it feels to be truly alive. There is a distant archipelago waiting between the Pacific Ocean and the Hecate Strait off British Columbia. It is an isolated spot, with rugged shorelines, but it lures the curious to come an experience its offerings.

The archipelago is settled off the coast of Canada with islands created atop their continental shelf. Getting there requires either flying or taking a ferry from Vancouver or Prince Rupert. Some will arrive in private vessels to stay in the local marinas. The chance to fly in to any haida gwaii lodge and have all lodging amenities and activity equipment already completely prepared keeps many returning often.

The adventures that entice sportsmen to simply arrive for adventures with every bit of equipment ready to go, including necessary gear and clothing for any season, are a big draw. You simply need to make your reservations and turn up on the arrival day, as your meals, entertainment and transportation each day are all set. You spend your days pursuing your activity and your nights in good company with fine food and relaxed entertainment.

To explore the Haida culture, many visitors spend time with local artists. They travel there to study the ancient carvings and paintings iconic to The People. Part of the artistry is intertwined with stories passed down the centuries with oral tradition. Animals and birds native to the area play a part in what the Haida tell their children and grandchildren about their origins.

Scientists think this land is filled with organisms that benefit from its volcanic waters. Naturalists come to see the wide diversity of organisms that exist there. It is thought that the extravagant variety was spared from the cold of the Ice Age, which explains why so many birds and animals that currently live on the mainland also live there.

The main islands of Graham and Moresby anchor the central spots within the complete archipelago. Originally named for Queen Charolott during British rule, the main cities reflect the colonial architecture built during that time. But Haida culture continued to coexist alongside, so the ancient name meaning Islands of the People has come into modern use. The two distinct cultures continue, with visitors enjoying what represents each.

For photographers, there is visual adventure beyond imagination. The pristine and rocky shorelines are equally as photogenic as the formal British architecture of previous eras. A local stay allows easy access to walks along beaches and through forests, with plenty of photo worthy views everywhere.

Taking lodging on this remote archipelago offers a calm and remote spot to recharge spiritual energy. Adventures of many kinds await those seeking it. Making reservations to spend some time here is one great way to escape the world as you know it, step back in time, and fill yourself with incredible memories.
