CAMPING
Tenting only on the island.
We've secured 2 group sites for everyone (G3 + G4).
If you would like an individual site, the reservation system opens
2 months prior to the booking date.
If you choose to reserve a private site, we recommend booking sites 14 through 18, that are in close proximity to Brownie Bay (picnic/ceremony location).
-
The 18 walk-in campsites are located in a quiet forested area a mere 5-minute walk from the docks. Several of the sites are next to the ocean.
-
Potable water is available along with flush and pit toilets, hot showers, and food lockers to protect your rations from local raccoons!
-
There are small luggage carts available to transport camp gear from the docks but wagons will be helpful.
-
Sites are available on a first-come first-served basis, but reservations are highly recommended. Book through the BC Parks online reservation system.
HOTEL/BNB
If you prefer not to camp, there are many great options just a short ferry ride away.
Please keep in mind, the ferries run from 10am - 6pm.
