Like art vacations as well as the coastal world? Then an Art at Sea trip on the Maple Leaf might be perfect for you.

On these special painting holidays, exceptional artists who are also excellent teachers take just eight students into the coastal B.C. wilderness aboard the classic schooner Maple Leaf for focused lessons in painting nature and coastal scenes.

The limited number of students allows for one-on-one instruction, in addition to the small-group lessons.

This art vacation also includes hallmarks of all Maple Leaf trips: natural history interpretation, exceptional cuisine, sailing a classic schooner, wildlife viewing, shore excursions and a sense of camaraderie and fun.
