"When a local sea kayak guide was asked once why she loved returning to Kyuquot every season, she closed her eyes, inhaled the salty air, smiled and said it was the bone-coloured nights when moonlight bathes the moss-covered trees, the sound of smacking as sea otters dine while nothing else is stirring, the fascinating stories and people of Kyuquot, and the way the place changes people in a matter of days." Taken from Kayak Routes of the Pacific Northwest Coast
