The Head & Tail of the Gorge regatta is an iconic BC event, featuring exciting racing and spectacular viewing opportunities, in the heart of beautiful Victoria BC. Teams attend from across BC, Alberta, and the Pacific Northwest, with some coming from as far away as the Maritimes or Europe.

The Head & Tail of the Gorge was held on Saturday, October 18, 2025. While projected high winds limited us to one day of racing (the Sunday races were cancelled), there was no blowing away the high spirits of this iconic regatta!
