Getting Here by Air

 

From the skies above Pender Harbour, you'll see an intricate labyrinth of islands, lakes, inlets and bays, with majestic Mount Daniel rising prominently in the centre of the landscape.

In just the right angle of sunlight, mineral content and microscopic creatures tint the waters brilliant turquoise to deep red, inspiring such names as Ruby Lake and Emerald Bay.

 

Scheduled Flights

Of you’d rather let someone else sit in the pilot’s seat, enquire at your airport or travel agency for charter services from Vancouver, Victoria, and Nanaimo.

Quotes

“From land and sea, views of Pender Harbour are limited— many interesting geographical features are concealed by contours of the land. From the air... all is revealed!“ Michael C. Crowe.
