Experience the charm of Sidney by the Sea from the water, as the sun sets across the Saanich Peninsula and the Gulf Islands glow in the distance. Our guided Sunset Paddle Tour launches from the protected shores near the Port Sidney Marina, taking you along a peaceful stretch of coastline rich in natural beauty and seaside life.

As you glide past the waterfront promenade, you’ll take in postcard-worthy views: charming sailboats at anchor, families strolling the seawall, locals dropping crab traps off the iconic pier, and the warm lights of shops and cafes beginning to twinkle onshore. The sea turns gold beneath your board as the sun dips low behind the peninsula, casting long reflections across Haro Strait, the San Juan Islands, and nearby Sidney Spit.

Our certified guides lead you on a relaxed, safe, and joy-filled paddle suitable for all skill levels. You’ll feel the wind-down of the day in your bones as the sky softens and the town’s coastal magic truly comes alive.

After your paddle, we recommend wrapping up your evening at one of Sidney’s cozy waterfront restaurants - many just steps from your launch point - for a drink or bite with your fellow adventurers.

Spots are very limited and fill quickly - book early to secure your sunset on the water!
