North Spit Conservancy | British Columbia

North Spit Conservancy is on Babine Lake, 65 kilometres northeast of Smithers. BC Parks says the conservancy protects two small bays on either side of a pebbly spit and beach and was established through the Morice Land and Resource Management Plan area.

The conservancy is accessible by boat 55 kilometres north of the Village of Granisle on Babine Lake.

Why Visit North Spit Conservancy

North Spit is a quiet Babine Lake conservancy for visitors who are already prepared for boat-based travel. Its defining features are the two protected bays, the pebbly spit, and the beach between them.

BC Parks also notes that the area is culturally important to local First Nations. That makes respectful travel essential: stay aware of shoreline sensitivity, avoid disturbing cultural or natural features, and keep beach use low impact. The official page does not list campgrounds, toilets, drinking water, trails, docks, or other visitor facilities, so the conservancy should not be approached like a serviced park.

The official activity listing identifies hunting as the only named activity.

Things To Do

Travel by boat on Babine Lake, observe the two bays and pebbly spit, photograph shoreline scenery, hunt during open seasons under BC regulations, and use the location as part of a careful, self-sufficient Babine Lake trip.

Planning Notes

Confirm boat and weather conditions before leaving Granisle or other launch areas. Bring navigation, emergency gear, drinking water, food, and communications. Hunting is permitted during open season, but all firearms use must follow regulations. Respect First Nations cultural values and pack out all waste.
