OYSTER ISLAND ADVENTURES

Nootka Sound Fishing and Sightseeing
Your Hosts Gary and Karen Foster

We would like to welcome you to our neck of the woods and Ocean. Historical Nootka Sound on the beautiful West Coast of Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. Where it is not unusual to see Grey or Humpback Whales and maybe even a Killer Whale, Sea Lions, Seals, Bears, Eagles and much more all depending on the time of the year. Vancouver Island's fishing at it's Best! Here are a few Photos of Oyster Island

Experience fishing our famous Chinook Salmon (king) from June to September or Coho Salmon from September to November. The whitefish (bottom fish), Halibut or Ling Cod are not only great to catch but the scenery in their habitat is unbelievable. During the winter months November to March there is an abundance of crab, clams, oysters and prawns. This is our favorite time of the year on Oyster Island with winter storms for entertainment and the seafood is fun to collect and also really good eatin.

We try to cook as low fat as possible thus by using fresh herbs, lots of seafood along with our West Coast style of cooking, your meals will be a taste experience.

After an adventurous day of salmon fishing and seeing the sights of Nootka Sound you can relax in our saltwater wood heated hot tub, or tell some scary stories by the campfire before going off to bed to cuddle up in a homemade quilt.

The cottage is situated on a 20-acre privately owned island, which is accessed by taking a 45-minute boat ride or seaplane from Gold River. Once you get to Oyster Island the cottage is a 100-meter walk across the beach or you can take a trail through the old growth forest. Sorry but you do need to be in relatively good shape. The cottage has a large eat in kitchen, living room, 2 bedrooms, flush toilet and hot shower, and can accommodate up to 4 guests comfortably.

Our boat is a 22Ft welded aluminum SilverStreak, with a 225hp Honda outboard, and a 9.5hp kicker. The heated cabin is fully enclosed and in case of emergency there is a private porta potty in the cuddy. We will supply all fishing gear, tackle, bait and look after you and your catch until you leave us.

Kayaking is abundant in Nootka Sound. Come stay with us on Oyster Island and use our Kayaks to see the surrounding area or bring your own to venture out further. We can transport you to great Kayaking destinations then pick you up again at days end to enjoy the luxuries we have to offer.

Take advantage of our 3 night/4 day fishing packages or mix fishing with sightseeing or even sightseeing Eco tour; we can put together the getaway you dream of.

Also available are day fishing/tour trips.
