Great experience - Hubby was able to steer the boat for a good portion of the trip as it was just us. I learned how heavy the sails are to raise. Once the motor shuts off, we could hear the whales blow, off in the distance. Loved it

A Fabulous Four Hour Tour - Four fun,educational and exciting hours at sea brought out the best in our group. The wind the water great company. Gordon was a great teacher and guide. The time went so quickly we want to come back.

Highlight of my week long trip to BC - We sailed on the Percy Snow because it's a heavier boat and the winds were high. Despite the crashing waves, even 3 inexperienced sailors never feared. Dallas, our enthusiastic skipper, exuded competence and accommodated our every need. I was on the island without a car so he picked me up at Woodland Farms and dropped me off afterwards at the Sooke Museum. He let us all assist and even steer, though he did most of the hard work. Dallas is an educator without being didactic. Thankfully, he diplomatically recognized when it was time to sail the calmer waters of the harbour and basin. Fabulous adventure with substantive conversations and at an affordable price.

The Best Day Is Always On The Water! - Dallas was an excellent captain. Safety was the primary concern and the comfort and wellbeing for the sailors was a high priority. We maneuvered through the harbor to the Pacific Ocean on the West Coast of Vancouver Island. The winds started out calm but picked up as we went further out. Fog hung over the water in the distance but burned off with the rise in temperature. Dallas was engaging in conversation spanning a diverse range of topics. His demeanor was calm but engaging. We had a great 4 hours on the water enjoying not only the sailing adventure but the beautiful coastline. So an overall A+ for the day!

Exceptional Sailing Adventure — Can’t Wait to Return! - We had an exceptional experience sailing with Starlight Sailing Adventures! Gord, our instructor and captain, was amazing — incredibly helpful and made the whole adventure even more special and memorable. The sea was beautiful, and we learned so much while having a great time. We can't wait to come back and sail more with him! A definite must try in Sooke!

Very friendly, patient,... - Very friendly, patient, and happy sailor. This was a wonderful experience to end off spring break for the whole family!

Great sail, great time…. - Pulled into the parking lot and a car pulled up beside ours. It was Gord, the Captain of the boat that were going on. Started out great and got better! We are a party of 3 , Lorelei (my daughter), Wendy and myself (CaptnHerm). We motored out with me at the wheel and Gord raising the mainsail and unfurling the jib! Very slow sail, we had lunch, Gord made tea and we reminisced of the boats we sailed and places we’ve been. It was a great afternoon and a great time!

Awesome fun! - Super great experience sailing the high seas on a less than stellar weather day made for high waves and pure excitement!

Rock a Bye Baby - Bundle up for a very different adventure! This was a nice way to spend an afternoon. Watch out! There are three harbors in town so make sure to scour the information for the correct harbor.

No whale and sail - Most memorable parts was getting to steer the sailboat and enjoy the water. Not much wind and not seeing much wildlife was a bummer. No whales. Rain was miserable. Very small boat. Doesn’t look like picture.
