The Fishing and yachting Harbour of Deep Bay, on Vancouver Island, British Columbia Canada. SCO 8143
The small oceanside community of Deep Bay on the east coast of Vancouver Island is a town seemingly devoted to angling. Mapleguard Point is the elbow of an arm and spit that protect Deep Bay's natural harbour, beside the much larger Qualicum Bay. A peaceful BC resort community, Deep Bay is a fisherman’s delight, where chinook salmon in the 20-pound range top the scales each year. Nicely sheltered by Mapleguard Point, Deep Bay launches boats for the rich coho and chinook salmon grounds that lie in the bay near the Norris Rocks, Chrome Island, and Eagle Rock. Deep Bay is in Lighthouse Country, or the Baynes Sound area, which also incorporates Horne Lake, Qualicum Bay, Bowser, Fanny Bay and Buckley Bay - a good place to base yourself whilst exploring Vancouver Island. Deep Bay provides a wonderful view across Baynes Sound toward Chrome Island and its lighthouse, Denman and Hornby Islands, Texada Island, and the snow-capped Coast Mountain Range beyond that on the mainland. Location: Deep Bay is located north of Qualicum Beach on the east coast of Vancouver Island.
