Return to Burnaby/Dolomite Narrows

Sea anemones in Burnaby/Dolomite Narrows

After Slim Inlet, we decided to return to Burnaby Narrows on its South side, in order to float through on a very low (<1') low tide. We anchored in Bag Harbour, only 5 nm from Slim Inlet.

Something we haven't mentioned: most days we get 10-15 kn wind in the anchorages (sometimes up to 21), which thus far have always died down by dinner, and we have quiet calm nights at anchor (except for those partying kayakers...).

As expected, the sealife spectacle in Burnaby Narrows was especially spectacular with such a low tide. So very much worth returning to see it. (To our surprise, a couple kayak groups camped near the Narrow elected to sleepin and totally missed the low tide. A long way to come -- and they pay a lot -- to then miss this.)

After a pancake breakfast aboard Pelagia with David and Gillian from SV Carousel, we both weighed anchor and went the 10 nm or so to Ikeda Cove, where we spent two relaxing nights.
