About Nanoose Bay
The town
Nanoose Bay is an unincorporated community at the head of Nanoose Harbour, on Vancouver Island's east coast between Lantzville and Parksville. It is the Regional District of Nanaimo's (RDN) Electoral Area E, which had 6,765 people in 2021, up 10.4% from 2016. The name comes from the Snaw-naw-as, the Island Halkomelem people whose traditional lands these are. The area takes in the Red Gap commercial centre, the Schooner Cove marina, Fairwinds, a golf and residential community on the peninsula, and a Department of National Defence test range (CFMETR). The RDN sets zoning (Bylaw 2500; Bylaw 500 in the Lakes District and Schooner Cove) and issues building permits. Most residents draw on groundwater and use septic systems; Fairwinds has community sewer, and the RDN's Nanoose Bay Peninsula water system serves several neighbourhoods from wells and the Englishman River. The nearest full hospital is Nanaimo Regional General, with a 24-hour emergency department.
Around it
The Official Community Plan sets an 8 ha minimum for new rural lots, and for Resource Lands, which include all Agricultural Land Reserve land, 8 ha or 50 ha for forest and large recreational holdings. Moorecroft Regional Park, off Stewart Road, has about 34 ha of forest and close to 900 m of shore; Arbutus Grove, a 22 ha provincial park, lies on the harbour's south side. Highway 19 crosses the area, ferries from Departure Bay in Nanaimo sail to Horseshoe Bay, and Nanaimo Airport has scheduled flights to Vancouver, Calgary and Kelowna.
