Klemtu Guide

Klemtu Ferry Port

Found in an unincorporated community on Swindle Island in the coastal fjords of British Columbia, Klemtu Port belongs to a tiny town on the west coast of Canada. According to the 2007 census, only 505 people permanently reside in Klemtu, making it one of the smallest towns by population in the country. The town of Klemtu, especially its surrounding waters, shot to relative fame in 1968 when Sasquatch was reportedly spotted around the shore, though after a hunt from the local fisherman it was never officially seen. Unsurprisingly, considering the size of the town, there is only one ferry company operating in the port, and they only offer one crossing per week. The port connects to one of Canada’s largest and busiest cities, Vancouver; the crossing lasts up to 12 hours and is supplied by BC Ferries, a reliable and respected company in the area. Due to its location in the northern hemisphere and its proximity to the sea, Klemtu Port can become incredibly cold, causing a shock for first time visitors. Passengers are advised to wear several layers to ensure they are comfortable and warm.


Port Hardy Guide

Port Hardy Ferry Port

Port Hardy is situated on the north-eastern end of Vancouver Island, laying to the south west of Canada. The port connects passengers to other islands neighbouring Canada such as Bella Bella and Klemtu, as well as the Canadian mainland itself with the sailing to Prince Rupert.

What is there to do in Port Hardy?

Glorious mountainside next to the endless blue of the Pacific Ocean – Port Hardy is a haven for anyone who thrives in the great outdoors. A host of walking trails surrounded by refreshing forestry decorate most of the landscape, and in the winter months snow covers the surface, prompting ardent skiers and snowboarders to test their skills against the challenging terrain. If land adventure doesn’t sound enticing, kayaking and canoeing are available for those who are adept on the waters, whilst many choose to grab their surfboard and conquer the waves by the beach. The district may be ideal for adventure, though the peaceful atmosphere and picturesque scenery also lends itself to a relaxing few days away from the stresses of the modern world. Fishing is a popular pastime with the locals, especially when it’s possible to spot the wildlife that inhabits much of the rural areas. After witnessing much of the spectacular hillside that dominates the skyline, it may be a pleasant change of pace to explore the cultural history belonging to Port Hardy; Quatse Salmon Stewardship Centre and the Port Hardy Museum offer an insight into the traditional values embedded into the region.
