Juan de Fuca Provincial Park, Nature reserve and national park on Vancouver Island, Canada.

The Juan de Fuca Provincial Park extends for 47 kilometers along the Pacific coast, featuring coastal rainforests, rocky shores, and marine ecosystems.

The park combines three former protected areas - China Beach, Loss Creek, and Botanical Beach - into a single provincial park established on April 4, 1996.

The first marine research station in the Pacific Northwest operated at Botanical Beach from 1901 to 1906, led by Josephine Tilden from the University of Minnesota.

Four trailheads provide access to the Juan de Fuca Marine Trail at China Beach, Sombrio Beach, Parkinson Creek, and Botanical Beach, with camping facilities available.

The park contains diverse tidal pools at Botanical Beach, where shale and quartz formations create natural specimens for scientific observation and research.
