Sandwell Provincial Park is a small oceanfront site at Lock Bay, on the northeast shore of Gabriola Island.
Take an easy hike through the woods, relax in the sun or enjoy a peaceful stroll along the beautiful sand and pebble beach - a perfect place for a refreshing swim.
Beautiful Gabriola Island offers excellent opportunities for kayaking, diving, golfing, hiking, beachcombing and wildlife viewing. Also look for Indian petroglyphs carved into the sandstone boulders on Lock Bay's foreshore.
Facilities are limited to a picnic area and a pit toilet only.
Sandwell Provincial Park is located on Gabriola Island in the Southern Gulf Islands of British Columbia. Access to the park is via North Road, Barrett Road and left onto Strand Road, continuing to the park.
Access to Gabriola Island is by a 20-minute ferry trip from Nanaimo on Vancouver Island to Descanso Bay on Gabriola Island.
Other parks worth visiting on Gabriola Island are the nearby Drumbeg Provincial Park and Gabriola Sands Provincial Park.
