Ladysmith Marina

Ladysmith Marina sits in the sheltered waters of Ladysmith Harbour on Vancouver Island's east coast, offering a welcoming base to explore the charming town of Ladysmith just steps away — think heritage storefronts, local cafés, and easy access to Transfer Beach Park. Worth noting: as of late 2023, the marina changed hands from the Ladysmith Marine Society to local First Nations management, so it's worth checking current operations before you head in. The setting itself is hard to beat, with calm anchorage conditions and the scenic backdrop of the Cowichan Valley surrounding you.
