Haida Gwaii is not about a single destination, it is about experiencing the entire region – the culture, outdoor adventure, wildlife and community. By partnering with local businesses and tour operators, Hekate’s Retreat serves as a basecamp for our guests to explore and enjoy all that Haida Gwaii has to offer.

Our guests have access to e-bikes, shuttles to the ferry and airport upon request, and self-guided itineraries to help curate unique experiences while on Moresby Island. From golfing, hiking, beach combing, wildlife and sightseeing, there is something for everyone! Our team members love to help create memorable experiences, but in the meantime, here are some suggested itineraries to consider as you plan your visit.
