Jervis Inlet

Jervis Inlet, Deep fjord inlet in British Columbia, Canada

Jervis Inlet is a fjord on the British Columbia coast, about 95 km northwest of Vancouver. It runs 89 km from the mouth of the 18 km Skwawka River to the Strait of Georgia near Texada Island, reaching a maximum depth of 670 m. It comprises three reaches: Prince of Wales Reach, Princess Royal Reach and Queens Reach.

George Vancouver named the inlet after Rear Admiral Sir John Jervis, honouring his victory over the Spanish fleet at Cape St. Vincent on 14 February 1797. Before colonisation, the x̱enichen and ts'unay peoples of the shíshálh had principal villages in the inlet, the head being the x̱enichen village site. In the early 1900s logging camps operated at Goliath Bay, Vancouver Bay and Hotham Sound, with fish-processing plants at Egmont, ḵalpilin and sḵelhp.

The Shíshálh nations used these waters as home and a source of food for generations before European contact. Their heritage remains connected to this inlet's identity today.

The area is best reached by ferry service, which runs regularly between Earls Cove and Saltery Bay carrying vehicles and passengers across the water. Weather and tidal conditions can change quickly, so it is important to plan your movements based on local forecasts and water conditions.

James Bruce Falls, at 840 m, and Alfred Creek Falls, at 700 m, drop from the fjord walls and the Skwawka River valley at the inlet's head. They are among Canada's highest waterfalls; the source does not state that they flow year-round.
