Tribune Bay Provincial Park

Tribune Bay Provincial Park, Provincial park on Hornby Island, Canada

Tribune Bay Provincial Park covers 95 hectares on Hornby Island, about 72 hectares of land plus 23 hectares of intertidal zone and surrounding water. Its shoreline runs roughly 500 to 600 metres between Spray Point in the west and a larger headland in the east. The terrain is mostly flat with gentle undulations, rising to about 20 metres in the northwest; roughly 30 percent is grassland and beach.

The name comes from HMS Tribune, a British naval ship that patrolled British Columbia waters in 1859-1860 and returned again in 1864. This vessel connection gave the bay its enduring name.

The bay and park take their name from HMS Tribune, a British warship stationed in these waters in 1859–1860 and 1864. Hornby Island itself is named after the ship's captain, Hornby. Before settlement, the area was hunting and fishing ground for First Nations, mainly the Pentlatch people.

The park is reached only by ferry, which runs from the Gravelly Bay terminal on Denman Island to Hornby Island. The beach and day-use area lie in a small bay in the island's southwest, bounded by a headland to the east and Spray Point to the west. Facilities are basic: six pit toilets, a tennis court, picnic shelters and outhouses; camping reservations are strongly advised. A roughly 3 km trail links the park to Helliwell Provincial Park.

The park covers 72 hectares of land plus 23 hectares of intertidal zone and surrounding water, for 95 hectares in total. Its shoreline runs roughly 500 to 600 metres between Spray Point in the west and a larger headland in the east. About 30 percent of the land is grassland and beach.
