Located at the very back of the bay, on the
sunny
side, this inviting marina is situated in a five acre, park-like setting
which is complimented by the natural beauty of the area.
The spacious
grounds provide room for walking, beachcombing, secluded lounging, or
group
activities. There are swings, horseshoe pits, volleyball court,
shuffleboard, and picnic tables with adjacent barbecues. The large,
recreation building, equipped with a barbecue grill and
electricity, provides a comfortable spot for group gatherings in any
weather. Continuous improvements to the grounds and buildings provide a
clean and charming atmosphere. Dock attendants welcome boaters to 3,000
feet
of moorage on wide, well-maintained floats supplied with 15 and 30
ampere
power and water (water is limited to 30 gals/day). The fuel dock
provides
gas, diesel, and oils. Washroom facilities are kept spotless. At the
well
stocked store, the shopper will find a selection of groceries, fresh
produce, dairy products, fresh bakery goods, along
with a variety of carefully selected B.C. gifts, native art, and books
of
local interest. An extensive chart selection covers waters from the San
Juan
Islands through the Queen Charlotte Strait. Visitors enjoy both indoor
and
patio seating at the cafe. The menu includes pizza,
salads,
soups, and espresso drinks. Delivery of pizza and fresh baked homemade pies is available. This spot has become famous among boaters
for
its 1950šs style soda fountain serving freshly baked pies, thick milk
shakes, huge ice cream cones, sundaes, and banana splits. The marinašs
30-year-old burgee collection, largest on the West Coast, adorns the
