Crease Island, Goat Islands

This is a pleasant first stop after leaving Vancouver Island ports to explore Knight Inlet. It offers good protection from all quarters, except E. Best to anchor as close to the W shore as your draft will allow. Good holding in mud in depths of 3-8 metres. A small stream enters from due W and beachcombing is splendid at low water. Several islets and a reef near S shore make for enjoyable paddling or dinghy touring. Some of the islets are a good place to stretch you legs, if you don’t mind scrambling over rock shelves. Eagles seem to love this place. You will, too.
