General

Nitinaht lake is located on the west coast of Vancouver Island, B.C. Canada. This beautiful and very scenic area has a wealth of diverse activities for those that come and visit. These activities range from windsurfing & kiteboarding, to hiking, biking, boating, fishing, and whale watching. The primary route to access all these wonderful activities passes right though Nitnaht Village.

Of course when a lake is nearby, boating & fishing is definitely a must. Nitinaht Lake is13 miles long, with a narrow passage connecting it to the ocean. The lake itself is great for trout fishing and recreational canoe/kayaking. The "nitinaht triangle" is also popular canoe/kayak journey that many make as well. Salmon fishing is a major event from August to October both in the lake, ocean and Nitinaht river. Chinook, Coho and Chum are the three main catches targeted by fishermen. Boats are not available at this time to rent, however charters are possible. All purpose kayaks are available to rent at our store for day trips out onto the lake or river. For further information on charters or kayak rentals check out the X-treme Adventures page.
