the Gulf Islands. This is an enchanting group of more than
200 islands and islets whose tranquil waterways and gentle
landscape contrast with the ruggedness of the open Pacific

and yet be alone. Its many natural charms are complemented
by convenient man-made facilities making it a haven for boaters
meandering from anchorage to anchorage. As you find your way
