About this site

Source

Plumper Cove Marine Park is a snug anchorage on the northwest side of Keats Island in Howe Sound, reached by boat or by passenger ferry from Langdale to Keats Landing and a 2 km walk. That approach filters the crowd nicely.

About 20 forested walk-in sites are first come, first served, with fire rings, water and a trail system; marine facilities run to a wharf and mooring buoys, and small boats can be pulled up on shore. The pebble beach handles swimming and picnics, and Observatory Point looks out over Howe Sound to Gibsons.

The nearest listed fuel is about 4 km away; provision in Gibsons or Langdale before crossing.
