Sawn timber and other forest products make up almost everything that crosses the wharf at Cowichan Bay, a deep-sea lumber port on the southeast coast of Vancouver Island. The break-bulk terminal handles only a handful of cargo vessels each year, sharing the estuary with sailing boats and protected salmon and waterfowl habitat. Container and general-cargo liner services, along with routine international customs clearance, are not established here; the facility fills a specialised niche in British Columbia's wood trade. Landside movement relies mainly on road, with rail playing a minor role. For containers, reefer boxes or ocean liner connections, the terminals of the Port of Vancouver are far better suited.
