Hi / Calendar
- Welcome to Savary Island
have lived , worked and played on Savary for decades.
On this site I try to convey the facts and flavours of this Island , I call home.
Savary is about 5 miles tip to tip , lies East West, is not very deep, averaging half a mile.
A line from Powell River to Campbell River would run though it.
It is blessed with a very temperate climate, lots of sunshine and surrounded by sandy beaches .
Since The 1930s, Savary has been a cottage destination. From 1930 to 1980 The Royal Savary Hotel flourished.
The cottage tradition continues, there are roughly 100 'year rounders' and because more cottages are comfortable and people tend to have more time.
Visitors and owners are common throughout the year.
More people stayed over for The Winter, dry fire wood scarce, General Store ( now with beer & liquor) has been open throughout.

At this time:
- British Columbians who travel for non-essential reasons outside their assigned regional zone (as outlined by the Province) are now prohibited by law to do so and are subject to enforcement
- British Columbians who travel for non-essential reasons within their own assigned regional zone (as outlined by the Province) are not legally subject to enforcement
The list of essential travel activities, which are permitted between regional zones, is included under the emergency program order.
Regional Zones:
The order combines BC's five health authorities into three (3) regions of the province. Travel into and out of the regions for non-essential reasons is not allowed and is now prohibited by law. The regions are:
- Vancouver Island (Vancouver Island Health)
- Lower Mainland (incl. Sunshine Coast) and Fraser Valley (Fraser Health and Vancouver Coastal Health)
- Northern/Interior (Northern Health and Interior Health, including Bella Coola Valley, the Central Coast and Hope)
Sunshine Coast businesses are not obliged to cancel bookings coming from the Vancouver Coastal Health or Fraser Health Region nor are you expected to “police” people who choose to travel to the Coast under these restrictions.
BC Ferries will deny travel to customers, including recreational vehicles, crossing between different health regions as defined by the Order. The Horseshoe Bay / Langdale Route is not affected however the Comox / Powell River Route is. Please see the BC Ferries COVID-19 Update for more information.
