Big Bay is a sheltered inlet on the west side of Stuart Island, and is a calm pocket of water in an area surrounded by powerful tidal currents and nearby rapids. Its protected waters make it a reliable anchorage and landing spot for boaters navigating the Discovery Islands. The bay is beautiful, and the surrounding forested shoreline and a handful of small community buildings, create a peaceful, secluded coastal atmosphere.
