Open 12pm - 8pm - Grab lunch before the big wedding night! The Backeddy Pub welcomes families and minors (under 19 years) inside the pub or on the patio. We also have a “take out” self-service model so you can take your meal and eat it at your cabin, or at our picnic area so you can soak in those Backeddy vibes while enjoying your meal. We also have off sales of beer, wine, coolers, and ciders. Call the Pub at 604-883-3614 for more information.
Saturday June 25th at 10:15am - Allow 1 hour to walk each direction. (Ex. leave accommodation at 9:15am) Twice daily, nature puts on a show as the tide changes and the flow of saltwater switches, reversing the direction and power of the incredibly turbulent Sechelt Rapids. The difference in water levels between one side of the rapids and the other sometimes exceeds 9 ft in height, with 200 billion gallons of water flowing through the Skookumchuck Narrows connecting Sechelt and Jervis Inlets. The Sechelt Rapids are famous for their spectacular whirlpools and, for their attraction to extreme kayakers and divers. “Skook”, as it is affectionately named, is one of the great whitewater wonders of the world, attracting thrill-seekers from across the globe.
Along with our fresh-baked treats, all made from scratch on-site, we offer light breakfast and lunch options made with fresh, local ingredients, as well as organic espresso, coffee, tea and cold drinks.
The Egmont Heritage Centre is located on unceded traditional territory of the shíshálh (Sechelt) Nation, across from the Skookumchuck Narrows Provincial Park. It was built and fitted to tell the story of Native and early pioneers of the area, with an emphasis on logging and fishing. There are special collections of Vivian and Easthope marine engines, antique bottles, Depression glass and more plus a gift shop featuring books, art, crafts, and snacks. We also provide restrooms, wifi, internet access, outdoor displays, spacious parking and picnic area, and electric vehicle charging.
