"Things to do" when staying at Manna House

The following is an index of 14 favourite activities, some are available directly through us and others are 'off-site'. It's not exhaustive, conspiuous by its absence is photography, which I hope to remedy soon (although the website itself will give you a pretty good idea of the photographic potential here). Whatever activities take your fancy, we know you'll have a unique experience on this special island, will take home treasured memories and hundreds of photos on your cell phone! 
Wildlife & Bird Watching
You don't have to put much effort into observing the wildlife around here, it's part of the scenery and it often comes to you! This is a 2 acre lot that's been carved out of the forest...

Beach Garden & Fire Pit
We provide all you need for a cozy fire and BBQ. The private Beach Garden is for the exclusive use of our guests, and can be booked for an unforgettable evening!

Hiking
Hiking is an all-season activity; temperatures don't go much below zero, the scenery is always spectacular, and the wildlife performs whatever the weather. A walk in the forest, rain or shine, enchants the mind and calms the soul...

Swimming
Swimming off our beach is wonderful! You're alone, the ocean is like a mirror, warms up in Summer and is safe!
​Plus Denman has publicly accessible swimming beaches and 2 beautiful. swimming lakes.

Trail Biking
We have 4 trail bikes for guests' use, or bring your own! There are great trails on Denman and Hornby, and we have the trail maps. The roads, more like country lanes, are very quiet.
