Clam Bay is a retreat from the hustle and bustle of urban life, yet only 25 minutes flying time from Vancouver. Located beside the ocean on Pender Island, one of BC's southern Gulf Islands, Clam Bay is the perfect getaway.

Guests love the spectacular Farm House, the waterfront Boat House, the spacious Cottage in the Woods, the waterfront Oar House and the slightly funky Pump House. All are individually decorated and equipped with everything from hairdryers to wood-burning stoves.

The Pavilion inspires guests with its 360 degree views, while the lounge, with its open fireplace, pool table and comfortable chesterfields is the ideal venue for evening get togethers. The massive verandah lends itself to leisurely lunches and informal meetings.

Activities at Clam Bay range from canoeing and kayaking, to a leisurely game of bocce or badminton on the lawn. There are several miles of safe running trails, a Japanese-style hot tub and sauna. A treatment from one of the on-island masseuses is a great way to relax at the end of the day.

Clam Bay is the most incredible place! Trainingnet had a very productive planning weekend in the care of Dorothy and her friendly and extremely capable staff. My highest recommendation to anyone planning a corporate retreat or getaway.
