Toba Inlet, Fjord inlet in British Columbia, Canada

Toba Inlet is a fjord about 35 km long and 2.5 km wide on the British Columbia Coast, running from the mouth of the Toba River southeast to its entrance at the junction of Pryce and Homfray Channels, at the north tip of East Redonda Island. It is the fourth principal inlet north of the 49th parallel, after Burrard Inlet. Klahoose 1 Reserve lies at the head of the inlet.

Spanish explorer Cayetano Valdés investigated the fjord in 1792 and documented its substantial depth and steep shorelines. During this expedition, he discovered a painted wooden plank that testified to indigenous presence in these remote waters.

The Klahoose First Nation maintain their reserve at the Toba River mouth, and the inlet carries the indigenous name Yekwamen. This name reflects the deep connection between the people and this remote waterway.

Toba Inlet opens at the north tip of East Redonda Island, where Pryce Channel and Homfray Channel meet, and runs about 35 km to the mouth of the Toba River. The inlet averages only about 2.5 km in width, so boaters and kayakers cross it quickly but face steep shores with few landing spots. Klahoose 1 Reserve sits at the head of the inlet.

Waters fed by glaciers glow in a striking jade green that almost seems gemstone-like to the eye. In summer, numerous waterfalls cascade down the surrounding mountain slopes, intensifying the alpine and wild feeling.
