Princess Louisa Marine Park & Chatterbox Falls

Chatterbox Falls
"There is a calm tranquility which stretches from the smooth surface of the reflecting water straight up into infinity. The deep calm of eternal silences is only disturbed by the muffled roar of throbbing waterfalls as they plunge down from sheer cliffs. There is no scenery in the world that can beat it. Not that I've seen the rest of the world. I don't need to, I've seen Princess Louisa Inlet." - Erle Stanley Gardner, Log of a Landlubber

Visitors come from all over the world to see this magical fjord where as many as 60 waterfalls cascade down massive granite walls. No wonder it has been called "the most beautiful anchorage in the world". Far inland, approached from the Strait of Georgia by way of Jervis Inlet, Princess Louisa Inlet has a charm and scenic beauty that must be seen and experienced. This magnificent granite-walled gorge rises sharply from the water's edge to heights in excess of 2100 metres (7000 ft). Almost completely enclosed, the Inlet is 300 metres (1000 ft) deep and never over 800 metres (1/2 mi) wide in its 8 km (5 mi) length.
Until mid-June, the warm sun melting the mountain snow pack creates more than 60 waterfalls that cascade down precipitous walls to mingle with the waters below. Beautiful Chatterbox Falls at the head of the Inlet tumbles 40 metres (120 feet).
This spectacular park contains a number of campsites, a ranger cabin, picnic shelter and toilets. For boaters there is a mooring buoy, stern pins, a boat dock and a dinghy dock. Walking trails provide access to nearby scenic features.

Accessible only by boat or plane, and best seen with experienced guides via charter boat, tour or floatplane due to dangerous conditions. There are no public roads. Entry is through the Strait of Georgia by way of Jervis Inlet, 90 km (55 mi) north of Skookumchuck Narrows.
