Jedediah Island Marine Provincial Park

Located between Lasqueti and Texada islands, this 243-hectare protected area contains coastal forests, rocky shorelines, and secluded bays for maritime exploration.

The park gained official protection in 1995 when Mary Palmer transferred ownership to the provincial park service after local residents raised four million dollars.

The island holds four documented archaeological sites, including an aboriginal fish weir, demonstrating the long-standing presence of Indigenous peoples in this area.

Access to the park requires a boat from Lasqueti Island, and visitors must bring their own drinking water as no potable water exists on site.

The park contains 3.5 kilometers of walking trails through old-growth forest, connecting different secluded bays across one of British Columbia's largest island parks.
