About
Located on the shores of the scenic Johnstone Strait, not far from the Robson Bight Ecological Reserve. Naka Creek is a popular launching point for kayakers and a rough (beach) boat launch provides access for fishermen. The campsite itself is very small with only 5 units. An adjacent open, grassy area currently provides overflow camping space.
Great area for watching Orca whales and other marine mammals. Please become familiar with the "Guidelines for watching marine wildlife", and note that landing a boat in the Bight is restricted.
**Do not clean fish within the recreation site or on the beach directly in front of the site. It is recommended to dispose of fish entrails at low tide and as far away from the recreation site as possible.
Road access. Maintained to Recreation Sites and Trails BC standards by a partner or contractor. Facilities on file: boat launch, toilets, picnic tables, fire rings.

Turn left onto the E.N. Hookup road for 14kms veering right at the junction immediately before the 14km marker. Always drive with caution on resource roads.
