Other reviews suggest bringing a flashlight, which we did, but it really wasn't all that necessary. There were 4 distinct tunnels through which to walk; one was very short. Only one was long enough to make the darkness of the tunnel feel a bit spooky. But the feeling passed as we continued walking. There's a large parking lot, with more than enough free parking for when we arrived on Thursday around noon. There are 4 toilets just adjacent to the parking lots, which is great because the location of the park is a bit remote. Would definitely recommend everyone making a trip!

We had popped in to take a look at some of the available brochure offerings and the like, ask staff a few questions about some of the local attractions, get some driving and walking directions, and check out a map or two. Staff were friendly, courteous, and helpful -- we were able to acquire all the information we hoped for, and left with a good selection of brochures, maps, and other 'stuff' to take back to the car and motel room. Our visit, though quite brief (as we were heading out of the city at the time, and anxious to get on our way), was fun and productive, and we were happy to have made the stop when we did, finding the information very helpful to travelling/activities planned for that day, and onwards over our stay.

This is Princeton's most famous landmark. It's an old bridge and it's a single lane! This brown…read morebridge called The Brown Bridge crosses the Tulameen River. It was built in the 1930s. Let's give credit to the City of Princeton for preserving this historic landmark which has a lot of character. The first bridge built on this river was swept away during a flood in 1886. After the incident, this bridge was built with better construction and it sure paid off. In 1958, a huge ice jam on the river almost took down The Brown Bridge, but it survived. I had a lot of fun walking on this bridge and driving across it too. I ended up putting the car in reverse so I could let another car cross it.

Victoria Day, my friend and I went to the Yale Historic Site. As the name suggests, it's a…read morehistoric site, in Yale. The attractions include a museum, a church built in 1863, and a tent city representing what life was like during the gold rush in 1858. The tent city consisted of tents and buildings representing the quarters of Chinese railway workers, a bath house, a jail, a general store, and of course, a saloon. In one of the tents there were costumes, complete with shoes, for people to try on. Even though it was a holiday, there weren't a lot of people, so my friend and I spent at least a good half an hour trying on the costumes and taking goofy photos. Yale Historic Site is a bit cheesy, but it's a cute, fun little attraction, and a good place to bring the kids. I'd definitely recommend it if you're in the area.

When in Yale itself, we did a sort of self-sightseeing tour, with a drive and walkabout, around and into some parts of 'Historic Yale'. It was the end of the season for all the tourist 'Heritage Attractions' there that day, and an early-am visit for us, and none of the attractions had opened for the day as yet, and the area itself, very quiet. This was no surprise, we had not expected anything more, and by going there, had really only wanted to drive around, catch some of the outdoor sights, and capture a few photos. On the way into Yale, we stopped on a highway pullover, to read some 'tourist info signage' posted, and got some lovely, distant, and slightly elevated views of the town. From there, we drove to, and down into the 'Historic Yale' site area, for some up close viewings of attractions -- which included: signages on the highway & within the site, back & front views of the 'Yale Historic Museum' ('The Creighton House'), parking lot & public restrooms, fenced walkway & signage to the Museum, and when driving out of the site, to go back up to the highway, a couple of views of 'St. John The Divine Church'. For us, it was an nice opportunity to catch some early-autumn views from Hope to, and within Yale. A quiet, peaceful, much-enjoyed, early-morning experience, with many wonderful sights in such a beautiful and historical area of the Province.

Federico took us to several beautiful spots around the bay, including one where we spotted seals lounging and even a bald eagle perched nearby. Later, we were lucky enough to see a sea lion surface right beside us - such a cool moment! We happened to be the only two on the tour, which made the experience feel even more special. Federico was a fantastic guide - knowledgeable, attentive, and easygoing, with a great sense of humor. He kept a comfortable pace throughout and made sure we felt warm, safe, and supported the entire time. Peaceful water (well, we were lucky for that!), incredible wildlife, and a guide who really cares - what more could you ask for? The boats we were in were high quality and the shop is top tier. The people who work at this organization are extremely skilled kayakers who are dedicated to helping the kayak community. The shop has kayak skills courses as well and is dedicated to promoting excellent kayaking. If you're considering a kayak tour in the area or upping your kayak skills, I can't recommend Ocean River Sports enough.

We ended up doing a two hour rental with a tandem kayak from Ocean River Adventures. Getting there was a short ten minute walk from our hotel. The entire rental process was very quick and easy and their rental equipment is very good. It was a good value for the equipment and time we got to use the kayak. The kayak tracked beautifully in the water and we had a wonderful time cruising around the harbor for a couple hours. We even had a seal that popped its head out of the water about 20 feet in front of us! Lee (I believe he is the owner) and Wesley were a delight to deal with. I would highly recommend this company.
