Venanda Marina on Texada Island: resting after a long days sail, now a cool drink, and then up the hill to the terrific pub with marvelous food. Venanda is one of the few marinas on the way up to Desolation Sound. The warfinger and his wife are real originals, you don't want to miss meeting them. We always enjoyed the short trip from Dave Prichards Marina at Pender Habour to the northern Texada. This stretch is often rather windy, however, we were lucky again, as you can see.
