Maple Leaf Adventures

Tall-ship sailing excursions on the coasts of Alaska and British Columbia have been Maple Leaf's bailiwick for the past 23 years. The regions' best guides—including First Nations elders and naturalists who specialize in BC and Alaska flora and fauna—imbue trips with natural and cultural history. The 92-foot Maple Leaf is a 104-year-old wooden schooner with mahogany and Douglas fir detailing and modern comforts like plush duvets and private berths enough to sleep eight.
