HAIDA GWAII INFORMATION
- The area was officially renamed from Queen Charlotte Islands to Haida Gwaii in 2009. It is a roughly-shaped triangle consisting of two main islands, Moresby and Graham with hundreds of smaller islands. The Haida are believed to have lived here for 10,000 years. Presently there are approximately 5,000 residents.
- The Haida are a seafaring people well-known for their beautiful artwork and famous totem poles – one of which is now located at the Edmonton Stollery Children’s hospital.
- Haida Gwaii is at the end of the road, a wet, wild refuge that has captured nature lovers’ hearts. The climate is mild with summer temperatures similar to those in the rest of northern and central BC.
SIGHTSEEING: Will require occasional walking on rugged and uneven terrain and travellers should
therefore be in reasonably good health.
This very special program will be limited to 30 passengers per tour due to the nature of interpretive programs on Haida Gwaii.
