THE CAPE SCOTT NORTH COAST TRAIL SHUTTLE
Cape Scott Water Taxi and Marine Services Ltd.

"YOUR ONE-STOP LAND AND WATER TAXI TRANSPORTATION"

The North Coast Trail is a 43.1 kilometre extension to the Cape Scott Trail. Hikers can start at the trail head north of Holberg, follow the Cape Scott Trail to Nissen Bight, then take the new trail extension to Shushartie Bay. At Shushartie Bay our water taxi "SEA LEGEND 1" will bring you  back to Port Hardy.

The North Coast Trail compares favorably with the West Coast Trail. There are no crowds or reservation system. It has been said that the North Coast Trail is now what the West Coast Trail was 20 to 30 years ago. The scenery is spectacular with sprawling sand beaches and a profusion of wildlife—bears, birds, and eagles.
