Rugged Point Lodge

Vancouver Island, BC

About This Lodge

Experience the beautiful and remote northwest coast of Vancouver Island at Rugged Point Lodge. Rugged Point Lodge is located in Kyuquot Sound on the northwestern shore of Vancouver Island, minutes away from the continental shelf, the Salmon Highway and our inshore fishery. Salmon, halibut and lingcod are only a cast away.

That’s what makes Rugged Point Lodge so special. Spend a full day ocean fishing on our fully guided Grady White Boats and then relax and enjoy our boutique accommodations with your very own private chef at our fishing lodge. Rugged Point Lodge can get you to the best salmon fishing on the west coast of Vancouver Island.

We fish for Chinook at Spring Island, only two miles from our dock. Kyuquot Ridge is also nearby, featuring reefs, rockpiles and gravel bars where salmon swim year-round. We can also get you to the “Salmon Highway” – 50 Fathom Edge – where migrating Chinook first head inland on their way to their home rivers.
