Our Mission
To become the number one divers source for diving the Powell River area. If you can`t find what you`re looking for just ask us. We will not only find it, but set it up to become a fun experience. What do we want to be??
In March of 2005 Karen purchased an Oyster farm in Trevenan bay at the mouth of Okeover Inlet and Desolation Sound. The vision is a working shellfish farm with a variety of shellfish from Oysters, mussels, scallops and clams as well as adventure tour`s.
The site of the shellfish farm is 42 acres of water and about 5 acres of ocean front property, Karen and her Operations Manager Don have been working day and night fixing, repairing, inventing and cleaning the property. When fully operational it will be rustic but warm and comfortable include over night accommodations for up to 6 guests which will be all inclusive including meals.
Behind the property is approximately 20 miles of Sunshine Coast Trail that goes from Sarah Point to Malaspina Rd with the farm being located just below Wednesday lake about 9 kilometers from Malispina Road.
Since the farm is also located at the mouth of Desolation Sound they will also be adding kayak rentals and tours.
Of coarse there is always diving going on at C-King Seafood farms we have hosted many divers already at the farm from new divers who have never dove to experienced world traveler divers and all have left having had a great time and lots and lots of fun.
