Conover Cove

✨ Hidden gem

Tucked between Galiano Island and the northern tip of Salt Spring Island in Trincomali Channel, Conover Cove on Wallace Island is a famously sheltered anchorage — locals call it bombproof for good reason. The 72-hectare island is a provincial marine park, so once you drop the hook you can go ashore and explore the trails. It gets busy in summer, so arriving early or coming in the shoulder season will get you a much quieter experience.
