Map
Maple Bay Marina is a full service marina, complete with fuel dock, pump out, boatyard with travelift, dining, shopping and docking assistance – all on one site. Maple Bay's Marina and Harbour is also a peaceful location, well protected by mountains from most winds. 

Maple Bay has rolling hills, lush forests, gorgeous coastal views, picturesque villages, artisan food, Indigenous culture and vibrant arts communities. Active visitors can enjoy kayaking and paddle boarding in the bay or can explore the valley’s world-class hiking and biking trails on Mt Tzouhalem (zoo-hay’-lum). Those looking to unwind can savour a meal at an ocean-side restaurant or rent a car and explore everything that the Cowichan Valley has to offer. For more information about Maple Bay click here.
