Outer Central Coast Islands Conservancy is west of Bella Bella and about 50 kilometres south of Klemtu. BC Parks says it was established as part of government's land use decision for the Central Coast planning area.
The conservancy protects an archipelago of outer coast islands with an intricate exposed marine-shoreline interface.
Outer Central Coast Islands Conservancy is important for experienced marine travellers who understand exposed coast conditions and cultural sensitivity. The area receives high use as a sea kayak route from Raymond Passage to Goose Island, and BC Parks identifies rich marine life with important sea otter concentrations in the McMullen Group.
Protection of cultural uses and values is a dominant purpose of the conservancy. The official page does not list campgrounds, drinking water, toilets, developed trails, docks, or detailed launch instructions. It does provide a map, responsible-travel links, and hunting rules, so trip planning should stay self-sufficient and respectful.
The archipelago setting requires weather-aware marine judgment.
Sea kayak the Raymond Passage to Goose Island route if experienced, observe marine life and sea otters from a distance, study exposed island shorelines, hunt during open seasons under BC regulations, and travel with cultural values in mind.
Bring marine navigation, weather planning, communications, emergency gear, and enough supplies for exposed central coast conditions. Hunting is permitted during open season, but all firearms use must follow regulations. Avoid disturbing sea otters, shorelines, wildlife, or cultural places, and pack out all waste.
