Plumper Cove
Plumper Cove sits on the western shore of Keats Island, just across Shoal Channel from Gibsons — drop anchor here and you've got a genuinely wild, forested setting with mooring buoys to grab if you time it right. Boat access only keeps it from getting overrun, but on summer long weekends you'll want to arrive early. Great diving, fishing, and views back toward Gibsons Harbour make it worth the short hop.
