      Map of

Haida Gwaii

One way to think of Haida Gwaii is as a village of 4,500 hardy, unique characters who live in seven towns spread across the Islands. The ocean and the forest are our front and backyards, the ferries are our connection to the mainland, and our local businesses are where we meet and support our friends. Come and enjoy this archipelago with us.

A map of Haida Gwaii, a beautiful group of islands off the northern coast of British Columbia, shows the unique features of the area. It details the lush landscapes, active communities, and important cultural sites that make this region special. This map encourages both visitors and locals to explore the rich history and natural beauty of the islands. It serves as a guide and a way to appreciate the deep link between the land and its people, showcasing the lively spirit of this distinct part of Canada.
