Embark on an adventure that begins just steps from your room, as we push off our kayaks from Odyssey Lodge beach. Share the waters of China Poot Bay with whales, seals, otters, seabirds and other ocean critters. On proper tides, you will have a chance to access a sea cave, as well as explore tidal flats and sand bars. Head to Gull Island for a chance to see eagles, puffin, black-legged kittiwakes, common murres and cormorants, along with many other types of birds. From there, you will navigate back to Peterson Bay for a scenic lunch and time to explore the beach and caves of the bay. Following lunch, you will be escorted on a guided hike to Moosehead Point where you will learn about native edible plants — and the poisonous ones. Finish the trip off with a short paddle back around the point, or leave the kayak on the beach and take one of the trails. It’s just a five-minute walk back to the lodge.
