Al was a fabulous guide, taking me out paddling in the scenic Tofino Inlet. He made sure all the necessary gear was ready to go and that I was comfortable at all times. But one of the biggest treats for me was having Al and Michelle's dog, Koli, along with us. (Koli is an expert paddle boarder, btw!)

We really enjoyed our paddle board outing with Alan. He and Michelle were very welcoming. They were very attentive to the experience level of the participants and Alan adapted the outing according to the fact that we were all beginners. They were very vigilant and reassuring when we mentioned that one person in our group was nervous on the water. Thank you for this unique and relaxing activity!

Awesome 😎 this is my first time experiencing the Paddle on Tofino inlet, it was so peaceful and immersing in the natural world. I love the little dog with me staying on the water. I will come back again. Thank you so much and have a wonderful summer. See you next time.

We had the best evening paddle with our host Michelle and her dog Koli. I highly recommend this paddle in one of the most beautiful places. Everything went smoothly: the booking was easy, the communication was excellent, the gear was great, the guides friendly and knowledgeable and kind- the scenery was unbelievable and we saw swans, bald eagles and black bear!!
Don’t hesitate to book this- it was fantastic and we even got great pictures!! 💕

Wonderful for a beginner like me! I loved how Alan tailored the experience based on what the group was enjoying. We spent extra time enjoying the wildlife (we saw a bear, eagles, and osprey). I always felt comfortable, safe, and adventurous!
