Beaver Harbour is another one of those "must do again" bays. Very picturesque with white sandy and midden beaches throughout the bay. At the head of the bay is Fort Rupert. Time did not allow for us to go ashore for a visit and a trip to the museum or carving area. We'll save this for another time. We found great anchorage in "Patrician Bay" in Beaver Cove.
The beach behind us has a nice long log at which Mike and Gordie sat the afternoon away chatting about whatever boys chat about. Dogs had a great romp on the same beach and then off they went fishing. A few hours later, as we watched the beach, a huge black bear came ambling out of the woods over the log that had seated the boys earlier. We followed the large bear (via water) all around the bear, this must have been her beach! Good thing we didn't decide to have dinner on the beach.
A short jaunt from Beaver Harbour to Port McNeil to meet up with Oceanaire, Summer and Nut n' Special. Some shopping, guest pick up (Gina and Stephen on Gulf Island) and general catch up with the group.
