Park Info:

Sabine Channel Provincial Park encompasses two complete islands – Jervis and Bunny – located in the Sabine Channel between Texada and Lasqueti Islands. These islands are part of a chain of more than 30 islands and rocky islets, with Jedediah Island being the largest. Jervis and Bunny Islands are comprised of forest ecosystems intermingled with rocky cliffs and outcrops encircled by a rich marine environment.

Relatively easy access and a natural setting with a sense of remoteness make this area a popular destination for kayakers and boaters. Opportunities also exist for hiking, wilderness camping, fishing, scuba diving and nature appreciation.

Park Size: 95 hectares
