点评:I highly recommend kayaking with Skeena Kayaking. We went on a "Wilderness Waterfront Kayaking and Rainforest Walk" excursion through Virgin Voyages when our ship stopped in Prince Rupert.
Full disclosure: I think a portion of our wonderful experience is due to the lovely weather we had. It was mid 70's Fahrenheit (~23 C) and the sun was out. However, the rest of the credit is due to our guide Steve. He was cheerful, kind and knowledgeable. It was also clear from the beginning that Steve is devoted to the environment and to his community. This is the kind of person you want to show you around his home.
- Kayaking - we were a group of six. life vests were provided. we started a two minute walk from the cruise ship in Cow Bay Marina and kayaked ~90 min up to Seal Cove. We were going with the current but there was some headwind. It was fun but challenging at parts; some kayaking experience is needed. It was warm out, but we still jellyfish, starfish, seals as well as several eagles!
- Rainforest Walk - we walked back along the coast on Rushbrook Trail. It was lovely waterside walk (approx 0.8 miles or 1.3 km). The trail is easy and well maintained. We ended at a marina and had snacks at Bob's on the Rocks. From there, it was a quick 10 min walk back to the cruise terminal.
Whether visiting by cruise ship or just on your own, highly recommend guided tours with Skeena Kayaking! What a great experience.
翻译:我强烈推荐斯基纳皮划艇公司(Skeena Kayaking)的皮划艇之旅。我们的邮轮停靠鲁珀特王子港时,我们参加了维珍邮轮公司(Virgin Voyages)组织的“荒野水岸皮划艇和雨林漫步”一日游。
坦白说,我们这次美妙的体验部分要归功于宜人的天气。当时气温在华氏70度左右(约摄氏23度),阳光明媚。但更重要的是,我们的向导史蒂夫(Steve)功不可没。他热情开朗、友善博学。从一开始就能感受到史蒂夫对环境和社区的热爱。这样的人,你一定会希望有人带你游览他的家乡。
——皮划艇体验——我们一行六人。公司提供了救生衣。我们从邮轮停靠的牛湾码头(Cow Bay Marina)出发,步行两分钟即可到达起点,然后划了大约90分钟到达海豹湾(Seal Cove)。我们顺流而下,但偶尔会遇到逆风。整个过程充满乐趣,但也颇具挑战性;建议具备一定的皮划艇经验。天气很暖和,但我们仍然看到了水母、海星、海豹,还有几只老鹰!
——雨林漫步——我们沿着拉什布鲁克步道(Rushbrook Trail)沿着海岸线返回。这是一段迷人的水边漫步(约 0.8 英里或 1.3 公里)。步道平坦易行,维护良好。我们最终到达一个码头,在 Bob's on the Rocks 吃了些小吃。从那里步行 10 分钟即可轻松返回邮轮码头。
无论您是乘坐邮轮还是独自旅行,都强烈推荐参加 Skeena Kayaking 的导览游!真是太棒了!
