Deep Cove - North Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada

Deep Cove sits on Indian Arm, Canada’s southernmost fjord, which runs more than 20 km north into the mountains. It’s only 13 km from downtown Vancouver, but the cove’s history is a lot wilder than that suggests. By the mid-1800s, whales were being caught and cut up right on these shores.

This is the traditional territory of the Tsleil-Waututh and Squamish Nations. In the 1910s, Vancouver families started coming out to summer cabins here, and the area’s early economy ran on logging and granite quarrying.

These days the cove is famous for two things: kayaking and doughnuts. Honey Doughnuts has been on the main street for decades, and kayak guides on Indian Arm hand out its doughnuts halfway through the tour as a tradition.

Did You Know? Quarry Rock, Deep Cove’s most popular hike, is only about 3.8 km round trip, and it ends on a granite lookout over the whole fjord.
