Port Graves

Port Graves is a quiet anchorage on the eastern shore of Gambier Island, where you drop the hook and get that rare combination of total calm and jaw-dropping mountain scenery. The surrounding land is largely undeveloped, giving it a wild, unhurried feel that's hard to find this close to Vancouver. Gambier Island's trail network is within reach if you want to stretch your legs ashore.
