MV Cascadia | Bella Coola Heli Sports

Lodge Overview

Rising from the waters of the Pacific Ocean and blanketed with copious amounts of fresh powder.... A mythical skiers’ paradise is born.

Free yourself from the tethers of a traditional lodge. Climb aboard MV Cascadia and gain access to 3,550,000 acres (14,370 km²) of exclusive, untouched, and pristine terrain.

Imagine cruising along the ocean in a 138 ft catamaran equipped with a heli-pad, surrounded by picturesque fjords and towering glacial capped mountains, en-route to some of the most remote and exhilarating skiing in North America.

We’ve partnered with eco-tourism operator Maple Leaf Adventures who will bring you on the trip of a lifetime. This unprecedented catamaran-based heli-skiing experience day brings a new adventure each day and a new and magical anchorage each night.

Whether you’re skiing on an isolated island, plunging into the ocean for a cold water spirit bear swim, relaxing in a hot tub on the top deck of your floating lodge, or soaking in a natural hot spring right on the beach, your stay will be marked by luxurious amenities, the World’s Best Heli Skiing, and the freedom and excitement of that come with having your own private yacht and helicopter for up to eight blissful days.
