Klakish Inlet
West Side Vancouver Island
For a completely different experience, try Klakish Inlet. The world is a thousand miles away once we made through the skinny spot to get to Klakish Inlet. From the big wide ocean we had to negotiate a very narrow steepsided gorge of 30 yards or so. Within, there was one lake sized power boat, you know, like a ski boat, and I wondered how he made it there. This must have been a favorite place for the Native Americans, very secluded and hidden.
As do many of these inlets, there was a creek draining into it from the head. We took the dinghy at sunset, with the shadows lengthening on the spruce green mountains above. The water was like glass, and we came just as the tide was changing: the eelgrass waved us in and up the creek, and then gently gestured goodbye on our way back to AllyMar.
