7 Days on Haida Gwaii for Seniors. Ultra Small Groups.

Surround yourself in flourishing rainforests, windswept sand-dunes and endless beaches. Visit the totems that honour 10,000 years of history and meet a Haida Watchman. Sit down to a traditional feast of seafood, fresh from the ocean. A globally unique ecosystem that partially escaped the last ice-age, Haida Gwaii is an archipelago of more than 150 islands that evokes comparisons to the equally isolated and biologically diverse Galapagos Islands. The landscape ranges from sand beaches and dunes on the east coast to the rocky, surf-battered west coast and from muskeg lowlands on Graham Island to the rugged, eroded Queen Charlotte Ranges of Moresby Island. The tranquil environment of Haida Gwaii is occasionally interrupted by dramatic natural processes such as violent storms, big surf, landslides and earthquakes. While still a microcosm of coastal British Columbia, these events continue to alter the landscape and the ecosystems of the islands to give Haida Gwaii its own identity.
