Comox Harbour is a sheltered inlet on the east coast of Vancouver Island, opening into the Strait of Georgia. The water is generally calm, shaped by tides that expose mudflats and sandbars along the shoreline. Backed by distant mountains and coastal communities, it forms a wide, open marine landscape that changes noticeably throughout the day.

Just steps from the ferry dock sits Thatch Pub and Restaurant, the island’s only full-service pub with a waterfront deck, making it the perfect lunch spot to enjoy some local fare and take in the scenery during a day of hiking in this beautiful area.
