emailRetreat Cove
Galiano Island, BC
Retreat Cove is located approximately at the mid point of Galiano Island, on the south side fronting Trincomali Channel. It lies across from Wallace Island, a Provincial Marine Park. Retreat Cove is very pretty and protected, and can be a safe haven from strong winds and weather in channel. Retreat Island, in the middle of the cove, is joined to Galiano Island by a drying flat.
