The crew were so helpful - always making sure all the guests were taken care of - the Chef was first class! I joked with him one day (I'm Ukrainian), and said - it would be nice if you could make pyrogies. He said "I'm making them for lunch today" And he did - delicious. The ship was terrific - private sleeping areas for everyone . Lovely dining area. And the Broughtons were so beautiful! Whales, porpoises, sea lions, etc. We did a little fishing - even caught crab for dinner. Visited an ancient museum and a lovely First Nations town, Alert Bay. I'm definitely going to take another Curve of Time adventure next year.....it couldn't have been better.Monty Montaine2023-10-10Wow, where do I begin? I was on the Curve for a five day adventure and every day was really an adventure. We saw humpback and killer whales, four humpback whales dove down showing us their tails, one at a time. I hear thats a very rare occurrence , sure was for me. The chef, Al, treated us like royalty. There is something so delightful about having tasty creations being brought to you while being surrounded by the gorgeous landscapes . Our Captain Sylvain was the perfect host. Always smiling, you feel like he's experiencing this tour for the first time with the joy you can see i his eyes. I really can't wait for next year to do it all over again..makes life worth living.Brenda Evjen2023-10-07Amazing trip. Great food. Definetly would go again, just more kayaking and paddleboarding.Waterman Surin2023-10-04My recent journey with Curve of Time on their liveaboard expedition was nothing short of a magical adventure! From the moment we set sail to our final farewell, every aspect of this experience exceeded my wildest expectations. One of the highlights of this incredible journey was our exploration of the pristine marine park known as Desolation Sound. Words cannot adequately describe the breathtaking beauty that unfolded before our eyes. The beautiful emerald waters, lush forests hugging the coastline, and the symphony of nature in full bloom - it was like stepping into a living postcard. The daily change of anchor spots allowed us to immerse ourselves in different slices of this paradise, each one more captivating than the last. The serenity of being out in the wild, far from the hustle and bustle of everyday life, was truly an unparalleled experience. The rhythmic motion of the sea under the starry night sky brought a sense of calm and introspection that I haven't felt in years. It was a beautiful reminder of our connection with nature and the importance of preserving our precious planet. The vessel itself is a work of art. Breathtakingly beautiful and meticulously maintained, it provided the perfect base for our adventure. The sleeping quarters were incredibly comfortable, ensuring a good night's rest after our days of exploration. Now, let's talk about the food! The culinary creations served aboard Curve of Time were nothing short of gourmet delights. Every meal was a culinary journey in itself, with fresh, locally sourced ingredients expertly prepared by the onboard chef. It was a true gastronomic experience that added an extra layer of enjoyment to our trip. The activities offered were not just fun but also educational. Kayak excursions and hikes along the nearby coastline allowed us to get up close and personal with the natural wonders of the area. We saw all kinds of cool wildlife, from playful seals to majestic eagles soaring overhead. It felt like we were on our own wildlife documentary, and the thrill of these encounters was a highlight of our journey. In conclusion, my experience with Curve of Time was a dream come true. This liveaboard boat trip surpassed all expectations, offering a perfect blend of adventure, and tranquility. If you're looking for an unforgettable journey through nature's wonders, I wholeheartedly recommend Curve of Time. It's a voyage that will leave you with memories to treasure for a lifetime. Thank you, Curve of Time, for an unforgettable adventure!Doug Younger2023-10-04We had an incredible trip with Curve of Time Charters to Desolation Sound. The entire staff were amazing and made the trip with their in depth knowledge and humor and great food. We had several lifetime highlights however the most incredible one was kayaking with 4 orcas up close, really up close, being only about 2 metres off my kayak and passing right under the other two kayaks and one paddle boarder. Kayaking to the seastar channel was awesome, the stream was purple with starfish. We were also treated to a two hour display one evening of photoluminescence schools of fish passing around and under the boat and out in the bay, incredible. Swimming in the ocean to the waterfall on Teakern Arm was a real highlight too. We were entertained by several humpback whale sightings as well. The final night while watching the sunset off Savary Island, the Starlink train of satellites passed over, what a sight to see. The food was great and loved dining out on the deck. We thought it would have been nice to have some small appetizers to munch on ahead of dinner ( but not to spoil ones appetite), especially if dinner was going to be a bit later if we were still sailing to our evening anchor location. Overall this was a great experience and we would certainly look to do another trip with Curve of Time Charters. Well done!!Tessa Wyper2023-10-03Embarking on a journey with Curve Of Time Charters was like stepping into a dream I never wanted to end. Imagine waking up to the gentle rocking of the boat, surrounded by pristine wilderness that seemed straight out of a nature documentary. It felt surreal, yet it was our everyday reality during this adventure. What made this trip truly exceptional was the crew's passion and knowledge. They weren't just guides; they were storytellers, educators, and friends. From spotting orcas against the backdrop of snow-capped mountains to sharing stories with fellow passengers under a star-studded sky, every moment felt like a cherished memory in the making. Sylvain and the Crew didn't just show me the wonders of the Broughton Archipelago; they allowed me to be part of it. This experience wasn't a vacation; it was a soul-nourishing journey that left me craving more. I can't wait to return and create even more unforgettable moments in this coastal paradise.Laureen Aussant2023-10-02I went on the Desolation Sound trip this summer. I loved every minute of it! The staff were organized, friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodated everyone’s needs with a smile. The chef prepared absolutely delicious meals. We saw a variety of wildlife including whales, dolphins, seals, sea stars, and jellyfish. I would definitely recommend!!Barbara Patterson2023-10-02This was truly the trip of a lifetime. My grandchild and I appreciated the opportunities for kayaking and hiking as well as the delicious food and the amazing scenery. Memories were made on this trip!
