Boat dock

Highlight • Harbor

Long Island Bay Recreation Site is a small, protected, boat-access-only site on the west side of Long Island on Harrison Lake, making this dock your gateway to the island’s trail network. There are three docks configured in a “U” shape that can accommodate any size of vessel. If you don’t have your own boat, you can arrange drop-off and pick-up through Shoreline Tours in Harrison Hot Springs, which offers water taxi service to Long Island at $325 per hour. You can contact them directly to confirm availability and scheduling before your trip here: shoreline-tours.squarespace.com/harrison-hot-springs-speedboattour.

Long Island Bay campground

Highlight • Camping

Long Island Bay campground includes a communal fire pit, a small picnic shelter, and outhouses and is a simple but functional base for exploring the island on foot. From here, there are several trails that lead to a lookout towering over Long Island Bay, freshwater lakes, and various other parts of the island. The site is maintained in partnership with the BC Forest Service by Harrison Yacht Club volunteers, and there are no camping fees; just be sure to pack out what you pack in.

Long Island Bay Recreation trail

Highlight (Segment) • Trail

This trail is a remote, challenging out-and-back route on the west side of Long Island along Harrison Lake. Accessible only by boat, this trail sees very few visitors, making it a great escape into nature. It runs through lush, forested terrain and connects to several side trails that lead to picturesque freshwater lakes and elevated viewpoints overlooking Long Island Bay, with plenty of opportunities for camping and paddling. Covering approximately 27 kilometres with considerable elevation gain, this trail is best suited for experienced hikers ready for a long, backcountry-style day.

Beach with small dock

Highlight • Beach

This beach at the north end of Long Island Bay Recreation Site is a quiet, natural shoreline spot where the bay opens up to the more expansive lake. It’s a mix of coarse sand and small stones, with clear, cold water and fantastic views up the rugged, forested slopes that surround Harrison Lake. Less developed than the main campground area, this secluded spot is ideal for landing small boats, relaxing, or taking in the beautiful, remote setting.
