Telegraph Harbour Marina
Telegraph Harbour Marina sits on the sheltered eastern shore of Thetis Island, one of the quieter Gulf Islands and a genuine gem if you want to escape the crowds. The marina has its own café on-site, so you can grab a bite without heading far, and the surrounding island has that unhurried, back-roads BC feel with walking trails and a small community to explore. It's a well-regarded stop in the Cowichan Valley Regional District's Gulf Islands stretch, known for calm anchorage conditions and a genuinely welcoming atmosphere.
