Rugged Point Provincial Park and Dixie Cove

Jim really wanted to see Rugged Point Provincial Park. We were able anchor up in a small bay on the north side of the park. We took the skiff to shore and walked to the beach on a very nicely maintained trail about .5 km long.

Skiff on the shore

It was a lovely sandy beach. There are 3 beaches separated by big out crops. We were only able to walk on one beach.

Jim went back to where we left the skiff as it was a rising tide and there was a lot of surf action. Sharon and I walked on a bit longer. We saw some prints in the sand that looks like they were from a wolf

Wolf prints – very large !

The skiff ran well to the shore. But after when Jim had to retrieve it the surf was coming over the stern it started having problems again. It’s working, but struggling.

We didn’t spend the night at Rugged Point. There was a bit of a swell coming in.

We motored off to a lovely little spot called Dixie Cove.

  1. Love the beaches, so unspoiled!
    Can people have access to Rugged Point Marine Provincial park without a boat? Did you see any other humans in the park ? It is nice to see the pictures of you, finally. You look great! Sharon and you look so much alike, I would have said to Sharon “ you look so much like my friend, Pam”, if I met her somewhere without seeing the picture of Sharon. Thanks for sharing lovely stories and photos.

    1. Hi Suk.
      You can only access the park by boat. When we were there we saw a small boat anchored up closer to the beach and some people were tenting on the shore. There are a few lovely beaches in BC that are not known or easy to access. It was nice to go there.
