Tribune Bay Provincial Park

Tribune Bay Provincial Park on Hornby Island in British Columbia is centered on a shallow bay noted for unusually warm summer swimming conditions. Known for its broad crescent-shaped white-sand beach and spring wildflowers, it has informally been called Little Hawaii. The bay and park were named for HMS Tribune, a ship stationed in British Columbia in 1859–1860 and again in 1864. Today the park serves both day visitors and overnight guests, offering canoeing, fishing, hiking, picnicking, tennis, and open-water swimming, along with a front-country campground, cabins, picnic shelters, a playground, outhouses, a tennis court, and other camping facilities.
