Trudeau kayaks on Vancouver Island, meets regional and Indigenous leaders.
The prime minister took the kayak voyage at the national park, north of Victoria, before heading for Tofino and the remote west coast of Vancouver Island, where he will participate in local business meetings.
Trudeau spent several days this week in B.C., making stops in Revelstoke, Williams Lake, Vancouver and Victoria.
He acknowledged the efforts of firefighters in B.C.'s Interior region during a day-long visit to Williams Lake, where more than 10,000 people were recently evacuated from their homes to escape the threat of a wildfire.
Trudeau and B.C. Premier John Horgan also took an aerial tour of the fire zone in B.C.'s central Interior on board a Canadian Forces Chinook helicopter. At times the smoke from the surrounding fires was so thick, the ground below was barely visible.
The prime minister spoke on Friday night to about 100 people gathered for a Liberal party event at a hotel in Victoria, B.C., saying the party must continue to bring forward new ideas that make Canada stronger.
