Porteau Cove Provincial Park

Porteau Cove Provincial Park is a fifty-hectare waterfront park on the eastern shore of Howe Sound in British Columbia beside the Sea to Sky Highway. Known for mountain views and easy roadside access, it supports day use and overnight stays with picnicking, camping, swimming, windsurfing, and a boat launch. The park is especially popular for shore-access scuba diving because artificial reefs and two sunken vessels attract divers, while protections ban fishing and harvesting marine life. Its dock and pier also serve an emergency transportation role, reflecting concern over corridor closures highlighted by a major rockslide at the nearby Porteau Bluffs in 2008.
