Amy Marie Visits: Skookumchuck Rapids and Egmont
The view of Secret Bay from Backeddy Marina in Egmont B.C. Backeddy Marina was our stop both before and after our visit to Princess Louisa Inlet. It is located near the intersection of Jervis Inlet and Agamemnon Channel. It is also a convenient stop from which it is easy to access the nearby Skookumchuck Rapids. Currents are vigorous during certain portions of the tide cycle, so plan accordingly. We all have a different tolerance for currents while docking. We chose to arrive near slack water. There is fuel and water available at the marina. Additionally, there are cabins and yurts available for rent. The restaurant was particularly good, and the beer was cold! Upscale dining is available at West Coast Wilderness Lodge just a short walk to the southeast. Kayak rentals are also available on site.
