Saltery Bay Provincial Park.

We camped for three wonderful days at Saltery Bay Provincial Park, on the Sunshine coast of British Columbia, Canada during our 2022 Vacation The campground was quiet, clean, and dog-friendly. The camp host was also friendly.

The campground is conveniently located close to the Ferry terminal, camp the furthest away from the road for traffic noise. Saltery Bay is about a 29-minute drive to Powel River for all your shopping needs.

We camped next to the short trail that leads to the beach called Mermaid cove, which lives up to its name and deserves its own post. Coming Soon. We have camped at Saltery Bay before, you can see the post here.

"Saltery Bay Provincial Park was established in 1962 to provide ocean access on the Sunshine Coast of Georgia Strait. The park is divided into two separate sites: the campground and the day-use area. The day-use area with its rocky beaches is a popular swimming and picnic site. Lush forests with large, old trees create a quiet setting for the campground at Mermaid Cove. At low tide, the rocky shoreline often has tidal pools with starfish, sea urchins, small fish and crabs. Scuba diving provides a close-up look at the abundant marine life and a 3-metre bronze mermaid statue." - B.C. Parks "Saltery Bay Provincial Park is a great place for visitors to stop if they have a couple hours to spare before catching the ferry, but also boasts a campground and swimming beach if you would like to extend your stay. This is also one of the best diving spots in the region – divers who set off from Mermaid Cove in the park can find a 3 metre bronze statue of a mermaid in the depths."- Sushinecoast Canada
