2022 BYC Desolation Sound Cruise
Join us as we cruise through some of the most stunning scenery in the Salish Sea. The itinerary incorporates many of the must-see spots in Desolation Sound plus a stop at Princess Louisa Inlet on the way back. The itinerary is sailboat friendly so sailboaters are welcome too! This will be a hop on/hop off cruise meaning you can join and leave the cruise at any time depending on what works for your schedule. You will be responsible for making your own marina reservations.
