AREA 16: JERVIS INLET

Mac's Oyster Brand Name: Pearl Bay, Sinku, Summer Ice
Jervis Inlet is one of the principal inlets of the British Columbia Coast, about 100 km northwest of downtown Vancouver.
It stretches 90 km from its head at the mouth of the short (18 km) Skwakwa River to its opening into the Strait of Georgia
near Texada Island. Much like a Norwegian fjord, its uppermost stretch is Queens Reach, which takes a sharp right-angle to
become Princess Royal Reach: both reaches are about 20 km in length.

SECHELT INLET
Mac's Oyster Brand Name: Mac's Shucked Meat, Mac's Deep Water Oysters
Sechelt Inlet is another principal inlet in the British Columbia Coast. The inlet is significant in that it almost makes
an island of what is instead the Sechelt Peninsula, whose isthmus is at the town of Sechelt at the head of the inlet. The
isthmus is less than 1.2 km in wide.
Sechelt Inlet is famous for its saltwater rapids the Skookumchuck Narrows, which rage with near waterfall-like fury during
tide changes. Sechelt Inlet has two side-inlets, Salmon Inlet, which begins at a small power dam at the mouth of the Clowhom
River and is about 23 km in length, and Narrows Inlet, which includes the Tzoonie Narrows. The later is about 15 km in
length and emerges on the main inlet just inside the inner mouth of the Skookumchuck Narrows.
