The Area
 |
|
|
|
Nothing can prepare you for the wonder of the northern wilderness. In this land where wildlife is abundant, the calm silence of nature is intoxicating. The physical beauty of the Blackfish Sound area surrounding Malcolm Island is phenomenal. As you travel the calm waters of the Inside Passage of the Pacific Ocean, you can expect to see the breathtaking sights of huge Orca whales, inspiring Bald eagles, quick and agile porpoises, and the occasional seal. But don't expect to see many people because this part of God's creation is untouched by man. Enjoy the view from your boat, stroll along the beach, or take a relaxing paddle in one of our sea kayaks. Leave footprints, take pictures and keep cherished memories. |

Sointula |
|
|
|
 |
|
|
|
A leisurely bike ride from the lodge, Sointula (which means "place of harmony") was founded by Finnish settlers in an idealistic attempt to make a utopian colony a century ago. The community has a fascinating and dramatic history, which embodies the Finnish characteristic of "sisu" or tenacity. Today, Sointula is a commercial fishing center with a distinctive Finnish flavor. Many residents live in the original settlers' homes. Wooden saunas and boatsheds still line the waterfront. Browse local art galleries and peak into the 1909 general store and museum.
