Also known as the Northern Gulf Island, the Discovery Islands are a spectacular archipelago of nine major and numerous minor islands located between Campbell River on central Vancouver Island and the British Columbia mainland. The breathtaking fjords of Toba Inlet and Bute Inlet, which cleave some 50 miles into the Coast Range mountains, are also part of this spectacular region of ocean, rock and forest. The temperate climate, spectacular scenery, abundant wildlife, quiet rural lifestyle, endless recreational opportunities and variety of world-class lodges and resorts combine to make the Discovery Islands a highly desirable vacation destination.
