About Gabriola
The town
Gabriola is one of the northernmost of the southern Gulf Islands, about 14 km long and 4 km wide, with roughly 5,260 ha of land. With Mudge and DeCourcy islands it makes up Electoral Area B of the Regional District of Nanaimo, which had about 4,500 people in 2021, up 11.6% from 2016. The island is in the traditional territory of the Snuneymuxw First Nation, whose Sarlequun Snuneymuxw Treaty of 1854 covers it. The Islands Trust's Gabriola Island Local Trust Committee sets zoning through Official Community Plan Bylaw No. 166 and Land Use Bylaw No. 177, while the RDN issues building permits and asks Gabriola applicants for an Islands Trust review declaration. Water comes mostly from wells drawing on aquifers and springs; about a tenth of the island is on small community systems, and many households top up with rainwater or bought water in dry spells.
Around it
BC Ferries runs from Descanso Bay to Nanaimo Harbour, a crossing of about 20 minutes. Nanaimo Regional General Hospital, the referral hospital for central Vancouver Island, has a 24-hour emergency department. About 5% of the island is in the Agricultural Land Reserve. Its three provincial parks are all day-use: Gabriola Sands, on the sandy isthmus between Taylor Bay and Pilot Bay; Sandwell, on Lock Bay, with a petroglyph that shows at low tide; and Drumbeg, at the south end, which protects Garry oak meadows and Douglas fir forest. The Gabriola Land and Trails Trust looks after many of the island's trails.
