It features approximately half a mile of spectacular sandy ocean frontage. The east side of the property is very close to Hansen Lagoon. Price: $850,000 Size: 148.4 Acres Area: Vancouver Island Contact us: [email protected] or 604-606-7900 Cape Scott This is a beautiful, very private parcel of land and except for the beach area is mostly covered in old growth timber. The property rises gently from the beach east to the centre. Total rise is about 400 feet on the east side. The beach is mostly sand with a few rocky outcroppings in some areas. The property is located in a bay, which is one of only five in Cape Scott Park on the west shoreline. The east side of the property is only ¼ mile from Hansen Lagoon. Guise Bay is about 1½ miles to the north and Hansen Bay is approximately one mile to the south. Hansen Bay runs into Hansen Lagoon, which is due east of the property. Spectacular, private, pristine, unique - these all describe this property. This property has the potential for a variety of uses. It would be perfect for a private, personal retreat being accessible only by helicopter or boat. Cape Scott Park is becoming more and more popular and will be like the West Coast Trail where it will be necessary to book reservations in advance. Cape Scott Park could be interested in a private property owner developing a special resort for overnight hikers to use. This could include campsites, small cabins, Bed & Breakfast, shower and toilet facilities. This concept is very popular in New Zealand enabling hikers to use these trails without the need to pack tents and food because the lodge would supply it. Our research shows a total of 10 private holdings currently in Cape Scott Provincial Park, of which NIHO owns two—Cape Scott and sister parcel Fisherman River.

Cape Scott Provincial Park is ideal for hiking, and has sites for hike-in wilderness camping along the main trail. The Cape itself is attached to Vancouver Island by a sand bridge called Sandy Neck and hikers can climb a wooden plank road to the lighthouse for a spectacular view. The park is a paradise for kayakers with miles of beautiful white sandy beaches offering spectacular scenery. Several varieties of birds are found in the park including blue herons, spotted sandpiper, sandhill cranes, and trumpeter swans. Hansen Lagoon is also a resting area for migrating waterfowl – one of the best on the northwest coast. There is a fairly large population of deer and some elk in the area. For the fly-fishermen, Dolly Varden, winter steelhead, cutthroat trout, some sockeye, coho, chinook and chum are all to be found in the Nahwitti River. The Stranby river offers great fishing for winter steelhead, Dolly Varden and fall coho. Port Hardy is an excellent base for saltwater fishing. Sockeye salmon run in June and July, pinks in August, coho in September and chums in October. Steelhead range from 15-20 lbs. Sea going rainbow trout are also good sport. Port Hardy itself has a wide range of recreational facilities including indoor swimming pool, ice arena, curling rink, racquet ball and squash club, tennis courts, two marinas with year round moorage, numerous sport fields, golf course and driving range.

The nearest main roads for automobiles are some 14 miles (23 kilometres) to the south. There is a lighthouse at Cape Scott 3 miles (4.8 km), located outside the Park, which is inhabited year-round. There is also a ranger station approximately 3½ miles (5.6 km) due north of the property which has two rangers in attendance during the summer months. Cape Scott Provincial Park is a 58 square mile tip of land approximately 30 miles (48 km) west of Port Hardy on the northwest tip of Vancouver Island. Cape Scott Park comprises 55,089 acres of land and 12,608 acres of foreshore and is one of the most beautiful parks in British Columbia. It is characterized by more than 115 km of scenic ocean frontage, including about 30 km of sandy beaches, running from Nissen Bight in the north to San Josef Bay in the south. Rocky promontories and headland intersperse wide sandy beaches. Trails that have been cut by the park administration make for hikes from four to nineteen miles long (one way). Mount St. Patrick at 1,383 feet is the highest point in the park. There are about 200 different species of plant life throughout the park varying from low lying swamps south of the Cape Settlement, to virgin timber at the higher levels. Eric Lake, 44 hectares (108 acres), is the largest body of fresh water in the park. Cape Scott Cape Scott Guise Bay Contact us: [email protected] or 604-606-7900 Cape Scott Area Data Nissen Bight is two miles north of the property. Nels Bight is three miles northwest of the property, which has a fine-textured white sand beach about a mile and a half long, and considered to be the most impressive of the nine beaches in the park. The beaches in this area are some of the most beautiful beaches in British Columbia. They consist of pure white sands with the waves rolling in and is one of the most spectacular places in British Columbia. The climate of the Cape is unpredictable, with high rainfall and frequent windstorms. Summer months nevertheless offer days of warm sunshine adding to the enjoyment of one of the most spectacular and scenic areas of coastal British Columbia. Port Hardy is a community of 4,008 people situated on a natural deep-water harbour at the north end of Vancouver Island. Mining, logging and fishing forms the current economic base for this community, but tourism and aquaculture are also fast growing industries. Port Hardy is now the second busiest port for aquaculture landings in all of British Columbia – second only to Prince Rupert. Highway 19, the main highway, connects Port Hardy with all major centres on Vancouver Island. Victoria is approximately a seven hours drive on good paved roads. Port Hardy is also the southern terminus for the B.C. Ferries, which connects Vancouver Island with the Inside Passage communities and Prince Rupert, carrying 157 vehicles and 680 passengers per ferry. An airport, with two daily flights from Vancouver, serves the town and smaller charter companies provide commuter service. Port Hardy has a sea-plane base, a helicopter pad and is also home base for a fleet of about 123 commercial fishing vessels, which increases to over 800 from June to October. Port Hardy has one seafood processing plant, two seafood packing plants and a cold storage facility.

In 1786 Trader Trader James Strange arrived among the coastal islands near the Cape and named them after David Scott, patron of his expedition, and claimed the whole territory for Great Britain.
