AN ADVENTURE TO THE REMOTE
BROUGHTON
ARCHIPELAGO
I live in Vancouver BC and I am passionate about SUP touring.
There’s nothing I love more in life than paddling to a remote
island, harvesting seafood from the area and cooking it over a
campfire and sleeping on the beach. So in the last four years I’ve
been getting deeper and deeper into island chains and exploring
the coastline with my SUP board.
Word and pics: Aya Kristina Engel
My reason to SUP: freedom, healthy for my body and the best views!
The feeling I had the first time I did an over night paddle trip was akin to that feeling when you get
your first car. A giant new found sense of freedom. I can go anywhere, whenever I want feeling!
Except this one is on water with no ‘lanes’, less rules and more beaches. I love paddling on my SUP
board because it’s so versatile. I find when I’m doing distance paddling in a kayak, my back gets
stiff and cramps. On my SUP board, I can move my body in a more ergonomical way that feels good.
I can rotate from standing, sitting or kneeling. Also, when you’re standing on SUP you get a way
better view of the wildlife beneath you. I have now paddled over the top of orcas, humpbacks, seals,
sea lions, and dolphins – and saw them all while standing on my board.
Our goal: Broughton Archipelago
This summer, my friends and I (Ariane Tasca and Valtteri Rantala) decided to go to the northern tip
of Vancouver Island to a place called the Broughton Archipelago. It should be noted that most
Canadians have no idea where this is or have never heard of it – it is that remote. We chose this
location due to its immense whale activity. We wanted to paddle with whales… and did we ever!
