Our Values

• Houpsitas - the First Nations village in Kyuquot

  We are committed to local capacity building, education, and training collaboration with the Ka:'yu:'k't'h' / Che:k:tles7et'h' (Kyuquot/Checleset) First Nations people and Kyuquot community, including apprenticeship training and student employment opportunities.
• We use high quality and reliable locally-sourced products and services whenever available, suitable, and practical (Kyuquot, Gold River, Campbell River, Comox Valley, Vancouver Island, British Columbia).
• We are stewards of Kyuquot and Vancouver Island coastal ecosystems, and strive to share this wilderness ethic, sensitivity, and action with our guests and all other visitors to Spring Island and the Kyuquot area.
• We are a local resource for other visitors to Spring Island and the Kyuquot area, happy to share knowledge, suggestions, and safety support whenever needed/requested.
• We are professionals in the sea kayaking, eco-adventure, and Aboriginal tourism sectors, continually working with industry associations toward high standards of safety, service, and standards that are healthy, forward-thinking, and of benefit for our staff, guests, service providers, and associated communities.
• We know that our business success is interwoven with the success of each of the above - and we embrace that challenge!
