Mount Richardson Provincial Park

Mount Richardson Provincial Park encompasses 1,001 hectares of forest land on the east side of Sechelt Inlet, reaching an elevation of 986 meters.

The park received its official designation on June 28, 1999, as part of British Columbia's initiative to protect natural landscapes for future generations.

The area near Tuwanek connects to the heritage of the Sechelt Nation, who maintained traditional territories throughout the coastal region.

Three boat-accessible camping sites at Oyster Beach, Nine Mile Point, and Tuwanek provide basic facilities including pit toilets and fire rings.

The park hosts numerous wildlife species, from black bears and cougars to flying squirrels and turkey buzzards in its diverse ecological zones.
