Paddle with one of BC's premier outfitters! Ben Miltner and his experienced & dynamic staff have guided kayak tours throughout the Gulf Islands since 1985, and on Costa Rica's Pacific coast since 1987! As the original kayak outfitter in the Southern Gulf Islands, we expressly chose Galiano Island as our base because of the exceptional beauty of its undeveloped coastline, the abundance of diverse wildlife, and the reliable tranquility of its sheltered waters.
