Bamberton Provincial Park, Nature reserve and national park in Mill Bay, Canada.
The 28-hectare park features a 225-meter sandy beach along Saanich Inlet, connected to a forested campground through a 1.5-kilometer trail system.
The provincial park was established in 1960 after the British Columbia Cement Company donated the land, naming it after their managing director H.K. Bamber.
The beach, known as qʷələs in Saanich dialect, holds importance for First Nations communities who used Johns Creek for fishing and ceremonial activities.
The park maintains 53 vehicle-accessible camping sites throughout the year, with complete facilities from April to September and reduced services during winter months.
The beach area provides clear views of the Saanich Peninsula and Mount Baker, while supporting diverse marine life in its waters and eel-grass beds.
