Poets Cove Resort & Spa is located at Bedwell Harbour on the southwest side of South Pender Island. It is a 40-minute ferry ride from Victoria, and ferry service is also available from Tsawwassen, just south of Vancouver.

We are also accessible by scheduled and charter float plane service from Vancouver, Victoria and Seattle. The 20 minute flight from downtown Vancouver or Vancouver's South Terminal Airport is a spectacular trip over the Gulf Islands! The flight from Seattle is equally scenic and cuts hours off travel time from the States.


Another option from Victoria is "Poets Cruise" water taxi from Port Sidney Marina, which is just a 5 minute taxi from the Victoria International Airport. A 30 minute cruise through the islands brings you to Poets Cove Marina.

Our full-service marina is open year-round, with 110 deep-water slips for boats up to 100 feet, is rated one of the top ten anchorages in North America, and is a destination for boaters along the entire west coast of the continent. With Canada Customs located at our docks, it is a point of entry for many American boaters.
