This is your first refuge north of Cape Caution and well worth visiting. There are three passages into the Sound, the clearest is between Egg Island to the south and Table Island to the north. There are half-a-dozen locations offering protection, convenient depths and scenic splendour. Millbrook Cove is near the entrance on the N side. It has room for several boats. Best anchorage is behind the island at the N end of the Cove. Takush Harbour is near the entrance of the southern passage. Caution is required when entering between two islets. Within, best locations are between Ship Rock and Abrupt Point and in Fly Basin on the south arm. The passage from Broad Reach to Ahclakerho Basin is best run at high tide, favouring the east shore. Anchor in three to four metres with excellent holding in the basin. The Ahclakerho Islands (pictured) and the Channel are ruggedly stunning and a kayaker’s delight. The inner reaches, Smith Inlet, offer only fair-weather anchorages.
