Port McNeil
Port McNeill Marina sits on northern Vancouver Island, putting you right in the heart of some of BC's most spectacular Inside Passage waters — think orca sightings, ancient forests, and the wild Broughton Archipelago just around the corner. Run by the Regional District of Mount Waddington, it's a solid base for exploring Alert Bay and the U'Mista Cultural Centre on nearby Cormorant Island. This is genuine north island territory, where the pace slows down and the scenery does all the talking.
