Queen Charlotte Islands are part of British Columbia and are well-known for their natural beauty. The villagers are friendly and pleased to invite visitors to share the experiences to be found in their beautiful homelands. They are happy to share their customs which are still part of their every day lifestyle. Queens Charlotte Islands Accommodations are limited, but can easily fit any budget.
The archipelago region is made up of over 1800 islands. Each island has its own unique terrain, some with their snow-topped mountains, or sandy beaches and forests full of exotic flora and fauna. The recently renamed Haida Gwaii is a region which is well known to be an active earthquake area. The mountain areas are subject to fairly frequent landslides.
Visitors looking for somewhere to stay will find that the two islands of Graham and Moresby are the main accommodation venues. The ferry terminal based in the village of Skidegate connects the island with the mainland. The several villages on Graham are fairly close to each other making a trip around the island easy. Most visitors will find that bed and breakfast, a motel or a vacation rental are the accommodation options.
Fishing is the main source of income for Masset Village. What was once a thriving commercial fishing industry has declined in recent years, but has been replaced by an increase in tourism and leisure fishing activities. Visitors to Masset Village can easily take a trip to the Delkatla Wildlife Sanctuary and the Naikon Provincial Park.
Old Masset Village is the place to visit for those interested in the culture, art and history of the region. Islanders can be seen working in their front yard on carving totem poles which represent their beliefs and culture, as well as canoes for which they are famous.
