Gee, that sounds just like Roche Harbor and it's not summer yet. If you haven't learned yet, there is some interesting and comical British vs American history right there. Take a walk or dinghy ride around. Cool place but not one to stay long.

When you get to Stuart, I doubt it will be full but if it is, just go across to the bay on Satellite Island. It's a decent anchorage and short dinghy hop to the public dock and trails on Stuart. Just watch for the drying rock right in the middle of the entrance.

Turn Point on Stuart Island is probably one of the most likely spots in the area to see Orcas.

Don't forget, this coming weekend is a long one in BC and lots of folks will be making it a 4 dayer, Friday to Monday.
