  • star rating  Awesome Experience With Pedals & Paddles! - Pedals & Paddles was a great first time Kayaking experience! Our guide was patient and really worked with the pace of the group. Once we got going, it was awesome... read more to see our skills build amongst the beautiful landscape on the coast. Our guide made sure we got our pictures in, learned and observed BC's wildlife. Our guide was a local and he even provided me with tips on other must-sees in the area (Ex: restaurants, activities). Would absolutely recommend. Plus: Private docking area worked out well, less boating traffic, calmer waters.

  • star rating  Paddle, Laugh, Repeat: Unforgettable Kayaking with Pedals & Paddles and Guide Extraordinaire Matthew!  - We had an amazing kayaking experience with Pedals & Paddles over the Labour Day long weekend! The company was efficient, friendly, and personable, but what truly made our outing special... read more was our fantastic guide, Matthew Douglas. From the moment we set out, Matthew was engaging, asked thoughtful questions, and connected with our group on so many levels. His extensive knowledge and passion for the Sechelt Inlet, where he grew up, shone through and made exploring the area with him an absolute joy.

    If you're considering an adventure with Pedals & Paddles, we highly recommend them—and if you get the chance to paddle with Matthew, you're in for a memorable experience!

  • star rating  Scenery is amazing - the staff are even better!  - While the scenery on it's own warrants a 5 star review, the team at Peddles and Paddles are what make this deserving of the top rated activity in Sechelt (and... read more honestly, probably one of the best activity experiences I've ever enjoyed). Right from when we arrived, the team was attentive, informative, and overall just friendly, and fun. Our guide Matthew was absolutely the best! We couldn't have asked for a better guide, as a local, he knew exactly where to go, and he showed a real passion and love for kayaking, and also for the natural surroundings, the wildlife, and the overall area. Seriously, I don't think we could have had a more perfect guide for our group, and this will definitely go down as one of the more memorable kayaking trips I've taken!

    Thanks again, we had an absolute blast!
