Charlotte Queen Adventures Ltd

Hippa Island is located on the West Coast of the Haida Gwaii Islands, British Columbia about 40 miles south of the Northern Tip. The story of how the Charlotte Queen picked Hippa Island as our favorite fishing spot began in 1992. The predecessor of our operation was the Charlotte Explorer which began fishing these waters looking for “the best spot.” Being a ship it was mobile and began with the objective of “following” the fish in remote uncrowded locations. It fished Englefield Bay, Hippa Island, Otter Passage, Hakai Pass, and Dundas Island. Of anywhere Hippa Island quickly became the hands down favorite. The fishing was consistently outstanding for Salmon, Halibut, and bottom fish. There were no other boats in the vicinity, and finally there was Hippa Island which afforded good fishing in its Lee if it wasn’t possible to fish outside waters. Our shareholders and operating partners have been fishing here since 1992. We are convinced that we could fish here for a lifetime and still not discover all of the structure and nuances of this remarkable fishery. Ask the experts about Hippa Island.
