This summer, let interpreters from Parks Canada inspire and fascinate you as you experience all that the region has to offer! 

Discover and explore the tide-pools and rainforest. Feel a fuzzy sea otter pelt. Listen to stories that are older than our ancient trees. See the land and water from a different perspective as you immerse yourself in the cultural and natural treasures of the Pacific Rim. 

NOTE: Public programs are supported through the purchase of a national park entry pass. Programs are presented in English, with special programming available in French.

Stay tuned for the 2025 schedule. Make sure to check back here regularly for updates!

Join Redd Fish Restoration Society for their sea star wasting survey at Tonquin beach!

With the help of citizen-science volunteers, this is the 11th year of sea star wasting data gathered on the west coast, contributing to the North-America wide monitoring program by MARINe.

Sea Star Wasting Syndrome (SSWS) has decimated the sea star population along the shores of Western North America, quite literally causing sea stars to waste away. This is the 10th year of surveys at the Tonquin Beach location!

No experience necessary! Meet at the Tonquin Beach parking lot and dress for the weather. No registration required. 

As part of our annual West Coast Fibre Art Retreat, we invite everyone to join us for our Fibre Art Marketplace! Browse and buy from a selection of yarn, patterns, cedar, beaded jewelry and more! 

Stay tuned for more information about this year's vendors!
