Favourite water access resort/hotels in the strait?

[doug78]

Looking for spots I can boat to and spend the night on land. Something like the Rock water resort in secret cove, poets cove on Pender island. Will stick to the coast if restrictions force me to, but would love to cross over to the gulf islands. Would also consider heading north, maybe quadra in later summer. id be heading out from Bowen.

The painted boat in Pender harbour is nice.

Blind Channel. Bit further north, but worth the trip.

I have a feeling this will be an epic thread

The blind channel spot would be SICK! Next summer maybe, would be a great stop on a long tour spending the odd night on the boat.

Hoping to find something for mid june, finally get away with the admiral. I totally forgot about pender, its pretty close and probably has lots of options. Not always obvious which spots are boat friendly.

Look on navionics it lists places to stay. There are reviews and pictures. There's also that blue book thing (can't remember exactly what it's called but it's free)

is that open to the general public? i always thought the Richters catered to the high fallutin crowd based on their yacht slips etc. mind you i vaguely remember buying beer there once....
