Located near the head of Conception Harbour, the Overfalls are a seasonal cascade where freshwater from the hills above drops over a rock shelf and flows into the inlet. After heavy rain or spring melt the falls are impressively full, creating a curtain of white water that contrasts with the calm harbour below. Surrounded by forested slopes, boulders, and mossy groundcover, the site feels surprisingly wild for being just minutes from town. It’s a popular photography spot and one of the most scenic natural features in the harbour area.
