About Squamish Kayaking
Squamish Kayaking is a dedicated paddlesport rental and tour operator that has spent more than a decade getting people out onto the calm waters of Howe Sound and the surrounding lakes. Based on Loggers Lane right on the water, the company makes ocean and lake kayaking refreshingly easy: launch is immediate, the scenery is world-class, and the fjord setting of southern Howe Sound offers protected paddling beneath towering Coast Mountain walls.
The rental fleet covers single and double sit-in sea kayaks, sit-on-tops and stand-up paddleboards, including inflatable SUPs, with hourly, daily and season-pass options to suit everyone from quick explorers to regular paddlers. Beyond Howe Sound, paddlers can range to nearby spots like Alice Lake for flat-water family outings. Guided paddles and route advice help newcomers find sheltered shorelines, wildlife-rich estuary channels and the best vantage points on the Stawamus Chief from the water.
What makes Squamish Kayaking appealing is its tight focus on paddling done well. Rather than a sprawling watersports menu, it concentrates on getting paddlers onto quality boats and into beautiful, accessible water with minimal fuss. For visitors who want a peaceful counterpoint to Squamish's high-octane climbing and biking — or a scenic family afternoon afloat — it delivers exactly that.
