Melanie Cove

Melanie Cove sits inside Desolation Sound Marine Provincial Park, one of the most sought-after cruising destinations on the BC coast — you anchor off here and row or swim ashore into some of the warmest swimming water north of Mexico. The cove sits on Klahoose and Tla'amin First Nations territory and is known for its moon jellyfish blooms, towering forested shorelines, and the kind of stillness that makes you want to stay an extra night.
