There was a beautiful break in the weather this morning for the 1st Annual Lake Cowichan Witch’s Paddle🧙♀️🎃🍁🍂 Witches and Warlocks descended on the Arbutus Park beach to cast wicked spells and head out onto the chilling waters of Cowichan Lake. Big thank you to Julie @innerbalanceyoga for organizing this spook-tacular event!

Was able to take this lovely couple out for a redo of a #GordonBay islands tour last weekend. Their daughter gifted them with a Gordon Bay Islands Your with Pristine! Their previous tour was booked on a day that was pretty thick with wildfire smoke.🔥💨No smoke this time! 11am departure and 1 kt winds. 🌞Warm & sunny plus minimal boat traffic made for great paddle conditions‼️We casually paddled to the big cliffs on south shore and had a nice sunshine break on the #gordonbayislands on our way back. The scenery never gets old out here😍
Fall is a great time to paddle in #CowichanLake🍂🍁🎃✨

Our first Harmony Experience is in the books! Sending a BIG THANK YOU to everyone that joined in and helped us get this event off the ground. Julie from @innerbalanceyoga took everyone on a 1 hr yoga flow experience and then went all out on the finishing touches to make this event extra special! After a rejuvenating stretch and connecting to the forest, everyone then headed to the beach to hop on a Paddleboard to connect with the water. Morning sunshine a good stretch and summertime vibes are a great way to start the day! Stay tuned for more upcoming events with @pristinepaddleboardadventures and @innerbalanceyoga

Here is a quick video covering the safety equipment requirements & regulations put forth by @transportcanada when using a Paddleboard:
When navigating on your Paddleboard you must have:
-PFD (Personal Flotation Device)
-Sound Signalling Device (Whistle)
When paddling at night:
-PFD (Personal Flotation Device)
-Sound Signaling Device (Whistle)
-Watertight Flashlight
When paddleboarding WITHOUT wearing your PFD:
You must have the PFD on the board with you along with:
-Sound Signalling Device
-Watertight Flashlight
-15m Buoyant Heaving Line
Although they do not require it, Don’t forget to wear your board leash! It is a great piece of safety equipment that should not be overlooked!
-Tell a friend or family member where you are going and when you will return
-Check the water & weather conditions before you go
-Bring all recommended safety equipment
-Know how to use it!

This morning I had to get out on the water for a quick paddle to the #gordonbayislands before I opened up the shop for the day. I decided to take out the @redpaddleco 12’6 Voyager. This popular touring board can handle up to 330lbs! Swing by and take it out for a spin! We are open 10-6 daily.
