Ian Bolden downwinding in Davis Bay near Sechelt - Sunshine Coast, BC
Take your pick of many of the long, north-south lakes when the wind lines up with the lake direction north or south. Just make sure you are prepared for the most of the year cold water. The scenery will often be spectacular.
Do your own diligence on what conditions are safe/paddling friendly if at all for your skill level! Tidal changes here are very strong with vastly varying conditions for paddling the tide races. The strong currents and lack of large population centres means there is limited access to hospitals or Coast Guard on-water resources. About Safety
