Smithers Island Conservancy was established as part of government’s land use decision for the Central Coast planning area. Protected within this conservancy on the south shore is a narrow bight with sheer cliffs crowded with inter-tidal snails, seals and otters.
Smithers Island Conservancy provides anchorage and shelter for small pleasure crafts as a registered boat haven.
BC Parks honours Indigenous Peoples’ connection to the land and respects the importance of their diverse teachings, traditions, and practices within these territories. This park webpage may not adequately represent the full history of this park and the connection of Indigenous Peoples to this land. We are working in partnership with Indigenous Peoples to update our websites so that they better reflect the history and cultures of these special places.
