Shearwater and Bella Bella

After that exciting afternoon of whale entertainment, we made our way up Lama Passage and docked at the Shearwater Marina. This night it was Halibut and Chips at the Pub on the dock -- after four loads of laundry!


We fueled up at the Tribal Fuel Dock at Bella Bella


We also refueled up our provisions at the Band Store

On our way now, we're off to Ocean Falls -- and blue sky and sunshine up the channel all the way.

The Ghost town of Ocean Falls -- Once a thriving Mill Community owned by Crown Zellerbach - now about 40 people live here permanently. We took a walk up into the town, mindful to watch out for the bear reported to us by the Wharfinger. Many abandoned homes that were once well-loved. A ferry boat still comes in to Ocean Falls weekly and the Power Company has a few employees at the Dam. The Marina is great - great water, power and internet! More later on our stay at Ocean Falls!
