Escape the city and discover one of British Columbia’s best-kept secrets — a stunning fjord adventure just minutes from Vancouver.

Conveniently departing from Cates Park near Deep Cove in North Vancouver, this guided boat tour journeys through the spectacular wilderness of Indian Arm, passing towering granite cliffs, hidden waterfalls, off-grid waterfront communities, historic landmarks, and untouched West Coast scenery that feels worlds away.

Along the way, guests often spot seals, eagles, otters, and occasionally even orcas while hearing stories, legends, and local history tied to this incredible glacial fjord.

The experience ends at our private 3.5-acre off-grid waterfront retreat , accessible only by boat. (As seen by 4.2 million+ on Youtube - Family of 5 Living Off-Grid ) Relax on a sandy beach lined with palm trees, unwind at the tiki bar, and take in breathtaking mountain and ocean views from covered oceanfront decks.

More than a boat ride — this is a true West Coast escape.

  • This is Beautiful British Columbia!!

    ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Amazing Way to Experience Indian Arm – Even as a Vancouver Local! As someone who has lived in the Vancouver area for all my life, I thought I knew Indian Arm well. I was wrong. This experience gave me a whole new appreciation for one of the most beautiful places in British Columbia. From start to finish, the trip was exceptional. The scenery is absolutely breathtaking, with stunning fjord views, pristine waters, incredible wildlife, and spectacular mountain backdrops that make you feel like you're a world away from the city. It's hard to believe this hidden gem is right in our backyard. What really made the experience stand out was the hospitality and professionalism of the hosts. Chera and her husband Mark are incredibly welcoming, knowledgeable, and clearly have years of experience on the water. Their passion for the area is contagious, and they share fascinating local history, stories, and insights throughout the journey. The destination itself is something special. It's the perfect place to relax, unwind, and take in the natural beauty of the fjord. Whether you're visiting Vancouver, entertaining out-of-town guests, or you're a local looking to play tourist for the day, this is an experience you won't regret. I've been fortunate to enjoy many great experiences around British Columbia, and this one ranks among the best. I would absolutely do it again and will be recommending it to friends, family, and visitors looking for something unique and memorable. Don't miss this opportunity to experience one of BC's most spectacular natural treasures. Highly recommended!

    Highly recommend! Very welcoming, and we thoroughly enjoyed all the history and little stories about the area. Stunning views up the Fjord with a really beautiful stop for lunch that had a personal touch with the best sandwiches and chit-chat - this is what makes this trip with Pacific Fjord Escape that bit more special. Didn’t want to leave.

  • A Beautiful Escape into Nature

    What an incredible experience from start to finish! Chera and Mark were exceptionally warm, welcoming, and knowledgeable, creating an experience that felt far more personal and intimate than a typical guided tour. It was clear they genuinely care about sharing this special part of the world with their guests. The journey up the arm was beautiful, and the stories, local knowledge, and insights they shared along the way brought the area to life. Every stop felt thoughtful and unrushed, making the entire experience feel both authentic and memorable. The highlight, however, was visiting their waterfront retreat. This hidden off-grid gem is a true oasis. Peaceful, stunning, and tucked away from the hustle of everyday life, it offered the perfect opportunity to disconnect and fully appreciate the beauty of the surrounding wilderness. If you’re looking for a unique, personalized adventure with hosts who genuinely love what they do, Pacific Fjord Escape is an experience I highly recommend!

    Indian Arm is such a special place. Full of breathtaking scenery - with the crystal-clear water, mountain vistas and sense of relaxation that can only experienced by being there. Away from the busy waterways of Vancouver, Indian Arm is only 20 minutes away from the popular community of Deep Cove. Mark and Chera made our families experience and awakening of Indian Arm happen and we hope to enjoy the experience again soon. The boat ride itself was incredible - passing seals, otters and waterfalls on the way. The water itself was flat which was great for my wife who has a tendency to get seasick typically on any boat adventures. And their place…. well hard to describe in words…simply extraordinary. Hanging out at the outdoor Tiki bar, going for a swim (warmer than you would think for the ocean) and drying off on a beach with Palm Trees no less! It was such a great day and have recommended this excursion to our out-of-town friends to experience for themselves when they visit Vancouver and the surrounding area.

  • Amazing boat tour of Indian Arm

    My sister and I joined Pacific Fjord Escapes’ Indian Arm tour last weekend, and it was such a great way to spend the afternoon. The small group size made the experience feel personal and welcoming. Chera and Mark were wonderful hosts—friendly, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about sharing the beauty and history of Indian Arm. We learned about the history of the area, the Indigenous peoples who have lived there for generations, as well as local folklore, wildlife, and fascinating stories about the people who have called Indian Arm home over the years. The scenery was absolutely breathtaking. From the forested mountains and waterfalls lining the fjord to the peaceful shoreline at their off-grid cabin, every view felt postcard-worthy. We enjoyed a delicious lunch, had time to relax on the beach, soak up the sunshine, and simply appreciate the incredible surroundings. It was so convenient to park at Cates Park, which made for an easy departure point. If you’re looking for a unique local adventure that combines nature, history, relaxation, and genuine hospitality, I highly recommend Pacific Fjord Escapes. Thank you, Chera and Mark, for a memorable day—we can’t wait to come back!
