Getting Here – Gateway to Kyuquot

Driving to Fair Harbour / Kyuquot

If you are arriving by road from the mainland British Columbia, Vancouver Island is easily accessed via BC Ferries from Horseshoe Bay to Departure Bay (Nanaimo) or Tsawassen to Duke Point (South Nanaimo).

Once you are on Vancouver Island you will head North towards Campbell River on the Island Highway (BC-19 North). You will pass Campbell River, Sayward then Woss, eventually coming to the Zeballos Forest Service Road (you will see signs for the turn off after Woss). We recommend fuelling up in Sayward or Woss. Please note, cell service ends at Woss.

Turn left onto the Zeballos Forest Service Road, and travel 74 km down this gravel road. Follow the signs to Fair Harbour. After 42 km you will pass by Zeballos. Watch for signs and stay right to bypass the town. After travelling 32 more kms you will come to the end of the road, arriving at Fair Harbour - The Gateway to Kyuquot!
