Naikoon Provincial Park, Provincial park on Graham Island, British Columbia, Canada.

Naikoon Provincial Park is a 69,071-hectare provincial park on northeastern Graham Island in Haida Gwaii, British Columbia, stretching along Hecate Strait from northeast to east. Of this area, 66,961 hectares are land and 2,110 hectares are water and tidal foreshore. It is reached from Highway 16 via Masset to the north or Tlell to the south, and lies in the Coastal Western Hemlock wet hypermaritime zone, where western hemlock still grows as old-growth forest alongside Sitka spruce.

Naikoon Provincial Park was created on 18 May 1973 by Bill 174, together with nine other parks. Its status and boundaries changed several times; the Protected Areas of British Columbia Amendment Act of 2009 last redrew them, cutting the park from 72,641 ha to its present 69,071 ha. Long before that, the Haida hunted and fished here, and Haida mythology holds that the Raven found the first humans in a clam shell at Rose Spit Beach.

The Haida people have lived here for centuries, and their connection to the land remains visible in fishing practices and resource gathering that continue today. This relationship shapes how the territory is used and valued by those who call it home.

The park is remote with few services available, so visitors should bring their own gear and supplies and be ready for weather that changes quickly. Waterproof clothing and sturdy footwear are helpful for exploring the coast and forest trails.

The park contains North Beach, a continuous sandy shore stretching about 100 kilometers where visitors often see marine mammals and migratory birds. This long unbroken beach is unusual in the region and offers good chances for watching wildlife.
