advantages of
kayaking in Paul Grey and Gary Backlund's "Easykayaker: A Guide to
Laid-back Vancouver Island Paddling," aimed at

The book focuses mainly on eastern Vancouver Island and other popular Vancouver Island paddling locations ranging from the Gulf Islands to the Broken Group and Nootka Sound.
Grey and Backlund also cover safety and coastal regulations, rescue techniques and information on tides, currents, marine winds and weather as well as other useful tips for novice kayakers.
