When I was a ways south of there (Sechelt on the BC sunshine coast), I enquired at the floatplane base if they had any room for a couple of passengers looking for a view. They had a flight the next day to deliver a couple to a lake on an island (summer cabin) and then a couple of fisheries people to be exchanged on an inlet further north. For $100 a person we could go along for the ride.

It was a de Havilland Canada DHC-2, built the year I was born and was it an experience. Three water takeoffs and three landings in just over two hours and the rugged scenery of the BC coast . Well worth it.

You could try the same at the sea/floatplane bases in Alaska
