Montague Harbour Marine Provincial Park, Marine provincial park in Galiano Island, Canada

Located at the southern end of Galiano Island, this 89-hectare park features white shell beaches formed by wave-eroded shell deposits along its shores.

Archaeological evidence reveals human settlements on Gray Peninsula within the park dating back over 3,000 years, preceding Spanish exploration in 1791.

The northern section of the park contains shell middens that demonstrate the extended presence of indigenous communities in this coastal region.

The park maintains 25 vehicle-accessible campsites and 15 walk-in sites, with full services operating from March through October, including toilets and picnic areas.

The park holds the distinction of being British Columbia's first marine park, providing shelter to more than 130 bird species throughout the seasons.
