Indian Arm

Indian Arm is a steep saltwater fjord in southwestern British Columbia that extends north from Burrard Inlet into largely undeveloped mountain wilderness. Formed during the last Ice Age, it lies within the core traditional territory of the Tsleil-Waututh Nation, whose name comes from the Halkomelem name for the inlet. Mapped by Captain George Vancouver and explored by Dionisio Alcalá Galiano in June 1792, it is known for sheer granite walls, waterfalls, wildlife, and pink salmon runs at the Indian River estuary. Protected parks on much of its shoreline and limited road access have helped preserve it as a dramatic natural corridor near Metro Vancouver.
