Hornby Island: K’ómoks Traditional Territory

February 8, 2021

Hornby Island is located on the traditional unceded territory of the K’ómoks Indigenous Peoples.

Tucked in the middle of the Salish Sea, with white sandy beaches, crystal clear water and rich biodiversity complemented by a laid-back island vibe.

Tribune Bay Provincial Park boasts one of the finest sandy swimming beaches in B.C., while Helliwell Provincial Park offers a 5 km walk along spectacular bluffs and through old-growth forest and Garry Oak meadows. At the Mt. Geoffrey parks, you’ll find an extensive trail system for hiking and mountain biking, and the central Ringside Market is a popular stop for galleries featuring Island artist and artisan galleries, cafés, clothing boutiques and more.

For more information on Hornby, and all that it has to offer, visit hornbyisland.com.
