Welcome to Talaysay Tours Kayaking and Cultural Adventures
Sechelt (shishálh) First Nations owned and operated cultural interpretative tour company, (with a emphasis on education in First Nations history, arts, ecological practices, outdoor adventure and safety). Talaysay Tours provides guided kayak tours, lessons, rentals, nature walks, museum tours, community-totem pole walks, longhouse tours, events, carving demonstrations, and drumming and singing.
With a team of highly trained First Nations guides, artists, cultural workers, drummers and singers, Talaysay Tours can provide you and your group a highly unique, fun, and safe guided tour. Here on the Sunshine Coast, in the company of Talaysay Tours you will be provided with the rich history, ancient lore, storytelling, drumming and singing through native cultural interpretation.
We strive to inform, guide and share our history, our way of life and extend our friendship to our fellow community members and to the visitors of the Sunshine Coast. Our people have resided in this region for milenia. We know and respect these lands and waters that have sustained our peoples for countless generations and we would like to share this richness with you.
The majority of our kayak tours take place at Porpoise Bay Provincial Park. We operate from the southeastern end of the park (left side), closest to Sechelt Band Lands and near the gazebo closest to the beach. The parking at the park is $3/day and is monitored regularily.
Ask about our Custom Tours, our gourmet meals and other site locations. Talaysay Tour guides are available for private tours requiring a minimum of 3 persons to a maximum of 12 per tour.
Our Vision
Our vision is to provide all guests of Talaysay Tours with an experience that will exceed their expectations.
