Hotham Sound
Located south of Powell River, this majestic and peaceful destination is well worth exploring.  Launching from Saltery Bay offers sheltered paddling along with several interesting coves and bays that will beckon you in for a relaxing lunch. A meandering paddle through St. Vincents Bay precedes the awesome beauty about to unfold in Hotham Sound. Rounding Elephant Pt., the sound opens up into a majestic scene of sea to sky mountains, showing signs of intense glaciation. In the distance the sight and sound of the 1400 foot Freil Lake Falls draws one across the sound - an exposed crossing but little fear of winds due to the north-south direction of the sound which provides protection from the usual NW or SE winds. Upon reaching the other side, the tiny marine park of the Harmony Islands welcomes the weary paddlers to a well rested night and dreams of the next days paddle into the sun-warmed basin and tide pools at the head of Hotham Sound.
