About the Park
Jedediah Island, located between Lasqueti and Texada islands in the Strait of Georgia off central Vancouver Island, has long been a popular destination for recreational boaters and kayakers. It is the largest and most diverse of a chain of more than 30 islands and rocky islets located north and west of Lasqueti Island. The interior of Jedediah is comprised of forest ecosystems where you will see a variety of mature tree species, including Douglas fir and arbutus, intermingled with rocky outcrops. In several areas evidence of previous human settlements are evident. A rich marine environment encircles Jedediah Island, which offers secluded bays and coves for safer harbour.

After many years of passing by due to weather or schedules, I finally stopped at Jedediah Island. One of the top 10 best places I’ve ever visited by boat because of the many anchorages, wonderful trails, and differing types of views and terrain. Not waiting another 20 years to visit again! .

Day 4, Thursday, 6th July: We left the bustling port city of Nanaimo in the late morning, in search of more seclusion on our journey north to Alaska. What we found was Jedediah Island, off the eastern side of Lasqueti Island. A place with feral sheep, beautiful forests, and endless rock climbing. We anchored in a sheltered cove with two stern ties at the shore and then explored the island on foot. But not before Eliza lost the dinghy and had to jump in after it. In the spirit of solidarity, Theo jumped in as well. A cold bath in Canadian waters. We slept soundly that night, despite the buzz of hungry mosquitos. #canada #britishcolumbia #sailing #jedediahisland
The tide was right. The wind was right. The snacks were on board...the time was right. Spent the afternoon on beautiful #jedediahisland yesterday. Peeked through the windows of the old house. Explored the old barn. Walked through the meadow and orchard. And saw a troll (Troll!!).
The sunset with the dancing sun was not yesterday. It was last Thursday. But am including here for your viewing pleasure.
