Things To Do

Live with us in Coal Harbour and take advantage of the many activies in the area. From fishing to diving, hiking, kayaking, and so much more, the area boasts an array of outdoor activities and events to help you explore and enjoy living on the North Island.

Fishing

If you enjoy fishing, we are ideally located for you to easily fish both the west side of the island (Quatsino Sound and the open Pacific Ocean) and the east side (Port Hardy and area), both offering world-class fishing and 'open' area opportunities.

Hiking

Coal Harbour is also the perfect place to live if you enjoy hiking. The North Coast Trail and Cape Scott Provincial Park are just a couple of the many hiking destinations for you to enjoy and explore.

Caving

The North Island offers some of the best caving in Canada, with some of the longest and deepest caves and a year-round caving season.

Diving

Divers at Gods Pocket Marine Provincial Park, about 20 km due north of Port Hardy, can explore a renowned area rated by the late underwater explorer Jacques Cousteau as one of the best cold water diving destinations in the world.

Kayaking

Rent or bring your own kayak or canoe (storage is available on site) and enjoy kayaking or canoeing year round in the protected waters of Holberg Inlet. While winter storms may effect the Port Hardy coastline and out into the Pacific Ocean, the protected Holbert Inlet is almost always calm.
