A snug anchorage on the northwest side of Keats Island. Accessible by passenger ferry from Langdale to Keats Landing and a 2 km walk to the park. A developed area with forested walk-in campsites, fire rings, water and a trail system. Marine facilities include a wharf and mooring buoys; small boats may be pulled up on the shore. The pebble beach is great for swimming and picnicking. Observatory Point provides views of Howe Sound and the town of Gibsons.
