Protected from the vast Pacific Ocean by the mountainous backbone and natural breakwater of Vancouver Island lies a sheltered strip of silver sea known as the Strait of Georgia. North of the 49th parallel, on the strait's eastern shoreline, the cruising boater and visitors wishing to explore the area's waterways with a guided tour will be enticed by the splendour of Metro Vancouver and its magnificent coast and mountains - an area that plays host to one of the world's finest recreational boating playgrounds.
