Dive, dine, drive, ferry, fly or simply sightsee on your own!

Bring a bucket and try for yourself. Please, however check tidal change notices in the local news.

The nearby Rosewall Creek Provincial Park protects the seasonal salmon runs and is home to Coastal western hemlock forest and big leaf maple trees. The walk is certainly worth the trip!
