Port Mcneill
Port McNeill, a town on Vancouver
Island's northeast shore, offers a launching point for island
exploration. Originally a logging camp, it has grown into a community of over
2,300 residents.
For shopping
needs, Port McNeill has options like The Bargain! Shop for
general merchandise and MarketPlace IGA for
groceries.
Beyond shops, Port McNeill's true charm
lies in its breathtaking scenery and abundant marine life. Explore the
world's largest burl, a massive tree root, or visit the
informative Port McNeill Harbour & Information Center and the Port McNeill
& District Museum. Take a day trip to nearby Alert Bay and Sointula via
BC Ferries that depart from here.
Lively events
like the annual OrcaFest in August add to the
town's charm. Unwind at pubs like The Old Saltery Pub or The Sporty Bar
& Grill for a taste of the local nightlife scene.
