Explorer Basin Lay Day

Clear skies greeted us after a peaceful night on the hook—a promising start to the day. Not long after coffee, a black bear sow and her three cubs ambled along the shoreline, adding a touch of wilderness magic. Later, a couple of deer made a quiet appearance, rounding out the morning’s wildlife show.

We spent the day by dinghy, poking around the surrounding coves and scoping out potential anchorages. Otters stole the spotlight, tumbling through the kelp like kids at recess. Not a bad way to spend a lazy day in paradise.
