Just north of Seattle and the
San Juan Islands in the sheltered waters between Vancouver on the mainland
of British Columbia and Vancouver Island lies a group of small, verdant
islands called The Gulf Islands. Popular as a weekend retreat or vacation
destination, most of the populated Gulf Islands are easily accessed by
ferry or by float plane. Gulf Island Vacation Rentals, Inc. specializes
in renting quality Gulf Island homes for the city weary traveller who
wants to get away from it all.
The Gulf Islands are
renowned for their Mediterranean climate and for their laid-back
lifestyle. Most of the Gulf Islands have trails and beaches to
explore and many of the larger ones have kayak outfitters, public
tennis courts and swimming pools, horseback riding, golf courses,
disc golf and fishing charters. Cycling the Gulf Islands is very
popular and is a great way to see the islands.
While some of the
Northern Gulf Islands number wolves, bears, and cougars among
their wildlife, the Southern Gulf Islands boast nothing much more
dangerous than wasps. Seals, orcas, sea lions, otters, and mink
are frequently seen in the waters around all the Gulf Islands and,
of course, there are the ubiquitous deer – and the fences around
the gardens. Birders, too, will find numerous species among them
eagles, herons, turkey vultures and oyster catchers.

family reunion? Need a house that will take dogs or small
