All about Hornby Island
Hornby Island is one of two northernmost Gulf Islands near Vancouver Island's Comox Valley, a region well known for its white, sandy beaches that stretch around Tribune Bay before meeting the turquoise waters of the Salish Sea. The island's three provincial parks are a mix of Northwest rainforest, dramatic cliffs, and tranquil warm-water beaches. With more than 70 hiking and biking trails, Hornby Island is a popular destination for hikers and cyclists of all skill levels. The calm, warm waters surrounding the island are filled with marine life and unique sandstone reefs, luring divers worldwide. Hornby Island is one of the few places in the world where divers can spot sixgill sharks.
While the island is known for its lush parklands and outdoor activities, it's also easy to spend a day touring one of the acclaimed wineries here. You could also plan an afternoon around exploring the studios, galleries, and workshops that showcase the works of local painters, sculptors, potters, and metal workers in this thriving artist community. Hornby Island has one of the densest artist populations in Canada.

The island is one of the few locations in the world, and the only location in the Strait of Georgia, with a sixgill shark community. Explore underwater gardens and caves at Lambert Channel, Maude Reef, Heron Rocks, and Norris Rocks.
