Denman Island topography is dominated by dense forest comprised of the types of trees you commonly find on the West Coast. On the Eastern side of the island, you'll find Fillongley Provincial Park and numerous sandy beaches. On the West side is the General Store and the many amenities which are suprisingly well stocked with anything you would need while you are on holiday. The Southern tip of the island features Boyle Point Provincial Park where you will find the Chrome Island Light Station.
