• A WorldWeb.com Travel Guide to Parks & Gardens in Valdes Island, BC, British Columbia.
In June 2002, Wakes Cove Provincial Park was created on Valdes Island. The property is within the heavily settled coastal Douglas fir ecosystem and contains a stand of old growth as well as arbutus trees, Garry oaks and endangered plant species. It supplies a sheltered anchorage in the north end of the Southern Gulf Islands and offers hiking trails, picnicking, wildlife viewing and overnight camping for kayakers and other visitors in small boats.
