Nanaimo and area has a population of over 100,000 and the park is in the perfect location on Nanaimo’s southern edge overlooking the harbour. It’s only a 5 minute walk to shopping and buses, an 8 minute drive to the city centre, and a 12 minute drive to ferries, but when you’re here you feel like you’re in another world, away from everything.
