Alberni Inlet
Once known as the Alberni Canal, this long and narrow inlet runes from the Pacific Ocean inland roughly 40 kilometers to the heart of Port Alberni. The inlet was named after a Spanish explorer and includes traditional territories of the Ucluelet, Pacheedaht and Tseshaht people who are part of the Nuu-Chah-Nulth indigenous peoples of the Pacific Northwest Coast. This area is characterized by its lush majestic landscapes, surrounding wildlife, coastal forests and ocean views, which can be enjoyed year round from Alberni Inlet waterfront homes. You’ll also be centrally located to the city and the China Creek Marina and Campground.
