Hardy Island Marine Provincial Park

Hardy Island Marine Provincial Park encompasses 17 hectares of rocky shorelines and forested areas along the British Columbia coast at coordinates 49°43′42″N 124°12′58″W.

The provincial park, established on March 11, 1992, changed its name from Musket Island Marine Park to Hardy Island Marine Provincial Park in October 2004.

The marine park preserves Indigenous heritage sites where local communities gathered resources from both land and sea for many generations.

Access to the park requires a boat or kayak, as there are no developed trails or facilities, and camping operates on first-come, first-served basis.

During high tide periods, the park transforms into a small island, creating a natural sanctuary for marine life in Blind Bay.
