Salty Cedars Ocean Adventures

Custom ocean adventures, whale watching and fishing charters on the west coast of Vancouver Island

Our Boat

Our custom-welded aluminum Walker Center Console boat feature a robust, all-welded aluminum V-hull, which ensures that even when the seas become rough, our vessel will navigate them safely. The spacious walk-around console design is perfect for activities like halibut drifting, providing ample space to maneuver when the action heats up, especially when you're reeling in that prized tyee spring salmon.

On our boat, there's no need to worry about crowded conditions. The expansive beam and open layout ensure that you can enjoy your fishing or other activities without feeling cramped. Beyond the generous legroom, our boat also offers substantial storage space for any additional gear you might need for your adventures. Whether you're planning a beach camping trip, a remote surfing expedition, fishing outing, or exploring untouched territories, our boat is well-equipped to handle all your needs comfortably.

Ocean Adventures

We offer a variety of ocean adventures, including whale watching, bear and wildlife viewing, fishing charters, surf charters, and other custom adventures. Want to do something different? Off the beaten path? Let us arrange and charter a camping trip on a remote island or beach.
