Wild Cortes

Operating out of Mansons Landing, this regional museum focuses on the ecological and cultural background of the surrounding islands. The exhibits detail the specific flora and fauna of the coastal environment, alongside displays regarding local indigenous heritage.

Getting to Wild Cortes requires a ferry trip from Campbell River to Quadra Island, followed by a second sailing. The facility operates on a limited schedule, opening its doors only on Friday and Saturday afternoons between noon and four.

Run by a dedicated group focused on education, the space provides concrete information on regional conservation efforts. It serves as a practical resource for anyone researching the specific environmental dynamics of the northern Salish Sea.
