Stewart
Stewart, a district
municipality nestled at the head of Portland Canal in northwestern British
Columbia, boasts the title of Canada's most northerly ice-free port. Despite its
small population of around 517, Stewart offers a charming
atmosphere and serves as a gateway to wilderness adventures.
For
necessities, you'll find two grocery stores on the main street. More extensive shopping
options lie in Terrace, a 4-hour drive away. However, Stewart's true
treasures lie in its surrounding beauty. Immerse yourself in the scenic views
offered by the Estuary Boardwalk. Witness the majestic Bear Glacier
Provincial Park, or delve into the history of the region at the Toastworks
museum or the Stewart Museum.
Nightlife in Stewart caters to a
laid-back vibe. The King Edward Hotel and Silverado Coffee Shop offer
year-round dining options. For an evening drink, head to the Glacier Inn in nearby Hyder, Alaska.
