What to Bring & Wear
What’s provided?
Physical Abilities: For our boat tours, you must be able to step over a pontoon and into a boat and walk on rough uneven surfaces when / if we stop on shore. Sometimes with low tides, the ramps leading to docks can be very steep but they do have handrails. All trips leaving from Lund aboard our smaller vessel Namu, when/ if we are making a shore stop, you will be required to step into water, and onto rocks / uneven / slippery surfaces. Our boat captain can assist you of course. Please call and talk to our staff if you have any specific concerns.
Age Considerations: We have had babies to 85 year olds on our vessels. Babies must be worn by a parent and will be required to wear a PFD as well. As it is an open boat, wind can sometimes be an issue for smaller children but that can be remedied by having kids sit sideways on a parents lap. Children can stand up and wiggle /move when the boat is stopped but must be able to stay in place while we are at speed. It is a wonderful experience for all ages.
Unfortunately we do not allow pets on our zodiac boat tours. There are day kennels in Powell River if you need a dog sitter.
Please visit our Policies tab to learn about this.
Minimum # of Guests Policy: Some tours have a minimum number of guests required to run the tour. I understand that if my tour fails to reach its required minimum, my tour may be changed to a Private Tour, a shorter time frame OR moved to a different day. Our office will communicate with you if changes are required.
Weather Policy: If we cancel a tour because it is unsafe to go out (which relates primarily to wind and sea state conditions) you will be entitled to a refund. Rain does not constitute a reason for cancelling a tour, but may result in a modification of the tour length and route. Refunds will be issued if we return 30 plus minutes earlier than the tour end time.
Medical Policy: Please note that on our tours you may be anywhere from 45 minutes to 3 hours away from the nearest point of professional medical assistance. Therefore, we require our guests to inform us of any serious medical issues or concerns, such as the following: heart conditions, severe allergies resulting in anaphylaxis, diabetes, asthma, musculoskeletal conditions, and also pregnancy. In our efforts to support you to have an enjoyable and safe trip, we ask that you bring with you the appropriate medications to manage those conditions. Should you not have the appropriate medications (such as an Epipen) we may choose to modify your tour destination or refuse your participation out of consideration for your and other guest’s safety.
Tipping Policy: Tips aren’t included in our pricing. It is customary in Canada, to give a tip if you think you had great service from one of our guides / office team / launch site staff. This applies for all tips from half day to multi-day adventures. Our guides thank you!
Cancellation Policy: We require a full advanced payment of the services to complete a booking.
If you should need to cancel, you may choose either a monetary refund (see cancellation schedule below) or you could choose to have all your monies paid held as a credit towards future services. Credits are only valid within the same calendar year as the original booking.

"We rented kayaks from Terracentric Coastal Adventures and spent 4 days kayaking and camping in Desolation Sound. It was a fantastic trip! The team at Terracentric was very supportive and careful to ensure we were well prepared. I would highly recommend it."
