HOT SPRINGS COVE FLIGHTS DIRECT FROM GOLD RIVER ✈️

Hot Springs Cove just became a whole lot easier to experience. Every Saturday & Sunday, fly directly from Gold River to one of the most spectacular places on Vancouver Island for just $300 per person round trip.

Soak in natural hot springs overlooking the Pacific Ocean, wander through ancient rainforest, and experience the wild West Coast from the air, all in one incredible day.

Flights leave Gold River at 10:30 and return by 4:30 PM.

At $300 all in, this is an incredible way to spend a weekend on the West Coast. Grab a few friends, pick a Saturday or Sunday, and go.

Good news! We’ve been advised that Uchuck III is expected to be moved back into the water on August 7.

From there, she’ll undergo final inspections and complete her sea trials. Once those are finished, she’ll begin the trip home from Victoria. After she arrives, we’ll need a day or two to get her cleaned up, restocked, and shipshape before welcoming passengers back on board.

If all goes as planned, we’re hoping to have her back in service during the second week of August.

If you have a reservation booked during that week, please keep an eye on your email. Julie, our Reservations specialist, will be contacting passengers directly as soon as we have confirmed sailing dates. We kindly ask that you wait to hear from us, as we’re unable to confirm individual sailings until the vessel has completed sea trials and returned home. We’ll also continue to share updates here as more information becomes available.

Thank you all for your patience while she’s been away. We’re just as excited as you are to have her back, and we can’t wait to welcome everyone aboard again.
