I will be in Vancouver mid November for a conference, and want to
stay on for a holiday and do some sea kayaking. I have been drooling
over websites, but most of the organised tours and rentals seem to
end by the end of September.
What can I expect in November? I suppose days will be shorter, it
will be colder, and more wind possibly?
I am just starting out sea kayaking but have done fla****er and
whitewater paddling before and have a solid roll. Regularly paddling
now on Scottish coastal waters.

I am looking for something sheltered coastal, not big open water
crossings, and once I have persuaded boyfriend to come along I won't
need an organised tour, just boat rental and some local advice. Any
tips for good companies? There seem to be hundreds of them on
Vancouver Island! And what are good places to go to in that time of
year? Any other tips?

Thanks,

Roos
