Pirates Park sits on the north side of Protection Island and offers open views across Nanaimo Harbour. Directly opposite the park lies Mud Bay Dock, a weathered wooden pier where local boats are moored year-round. The contrast between the calm beach and the working dock captures the island’s relaxed, coastal charm — a great spot to pause and take in harbour life.
