These two locations are a tactical pairing because the Drumbeg location is protected from the NW, while the Kendrick Island location is secure from the S and SE. The park contains a kilometre-long sand and pebble beach with sculpted sandstone ledges, visible at low tide. A trail accessible from the beach follows the shoreline in two directions. There is room for three boats off the beach with good holding in 4-5 m in sand. Across Gabriola Passage, the long, narrow inlet between Valdes and Kendrick Islands has room for half-a-dozen vessels, with good holding in 6-9 m in sand and mud. Stay to the centre of the channel. West Vancouver Yacht Club has a float attached to Kendrick Island.
