🇨🇦 Monkey Business | Kayaking to Jug Island 🚣♂️🌿
When coworkers joked “Just kayak to Jug Island!” on a Friday, I said “Challenge accepted”—and it turned into the weirdest, coolest weekend adventure. 📍 The Logistics: • Launch Point: Deep Cove (parking = nightmare, drop gear first!). • Paddle Time: ~1hr each way (snack on steamed buns mid-sea 🥟). • Island Vibe: West Coast Living meets Alice in Wonderland—mossy rocks, zero bugs, pure zen. 🐒 Why “Monkeys Only”: • The Climb: Scramble up barnacle-crusted boulders (trust your inner primate). • The Reward: A summit of sun-warmed moss + ocean views too perfect to Instagram. ⚠️ Leave No Trace: This island’s magic depends on secrecy. 📍 Jug Island (via Deep Cove, North Van) 🤔 Would YOU brave the barnacles? Or know another secret paddle spot? 🗣️💬 #KayakOrBust #HiddenBC #MonkeyMode #VanWeekends
