About this park
Part of the campsite and day-use area are situated on a traditional Sliammon Fist Nations archeological site. BC Parks worked closely with the Sliammon Band to develop the site in a way that would enhance the protection a large shell midden which is the main feature of the site. There are interpretive signs explaining the significant aspects of the site.
