Cypress Harbour, Broughton Island

Leaving Kwatsi Bay we headed out early morning down channel to Echo Bay. There was still plenty of debris in the water, but less than the day before.

Echo Bay was a quick 30 minute stop for grocery and wifi access. The next destination is Cypress Harbour on Broughton Island.

After Stopping at Echo Bay to restock food we headed north up Raleigh Passage to Penphrase Passage then around the point of Broughton Island to Cypress Harbour. Cypress Harbour is very pretty but has an aqua culture facility within its boundaries. Because of this we tried to find a good anchorage off to the side. Our location worked out well, shallow depths, very secure anchorage in mud and no company. We had a dinghy adventure and went to explore the Stopford Bay inlet at the head of Cypress Harbour. We opted not to anchor up in there for reasons I can’t remember…..it was very pretty up in the bay but very shallow. We saw the beautiful Ketch anchored there which we had observed earlier in our anchorage at Waddington Bay. Paul set his crab pot tonight…

Morning has produced no crab. Time to leave for Greenway Sound and a good hike.
