Only minutes from Vancouver, Porteau Cove is the perfect waterfront camping destination. The beach is a great place for exploring and enjoying the stunning views of Howe Sound. Fishing (outside of the Provincial Park boundary), windsurfing and boating are very popular in the area.
One of the park’s main attractions is the tidal and inter-tidal marine life of the park’s foreshore areas. There is a good diversity of marine species, both along the shore and underwater. A scuba diving area has been developed with sunken ships and artificial reefs that have greatly enhanced sub-tidal marine life.
Porteau Cove Provincial Park is situated on the eastern shore of Howe Sound, 38 km north of Vancouver. To get there follow Hwy 99 north from West Vancouver. Follow the signs for Porteau Cove Provincial Park (not Porteau Road which is 2km south of the park). Turn left off of the highway into the park.
Porteau Cove Provincial Park is open year round with limited facilities and reduced fees in the winter (November 1 to February 28).
Porteau Cove Park features 44 campsites with electric hook-ups, 16 walk-in sites, a shower and washroom building, amphitheatre, sani-station, day use picnic area and 2 boat launches. Ice, firewood, propane campfire rentals and snacks are available for purchase at the gatehouse.
