Tidewater Provincial Park, Provincial park on five islands in Moose River estuary, Canada.

The park consists of Charles Island South, Charles Island, Butler Island, Hayes Island, and Bushy Island, located between Moosonee and Moose Factory communities.

The park, established in 1970, spans 980 hectares and features Middle Devonian era rocks covered with glacial debris and marine clay deposits.

The park operates through a partnership with Moose Cree First Nation, reflecting the traditional importance of the Moose River estuary to indigenous communities.

Visitors access the park via water taxis from Moosonee, with twenty tent sites available on a first-come-first-served basis during summer months.

The estuarine environment allows visitors to observe seals and beluga whales from the campgrounds while experiencing the daily tidal changes of James Bay.
