Madeira Park at a Glance
Named after the island of Madeira off Portugal’s coast, Madeira Park is a shopping
and community hub on the scenic Sunshine Coast and a gateway
to some of the region’s impressive natural wonders. Together with Garden Bay
and Irvines Landing, the small oceanside community forms part of the Pender Harbour area and is
a tangle of coves and lakes that will challenge even the best of navigators. With
its cluster of banks, supermarkets and shops, Madeira Park is not only a good
place to find services and amenities, it also serves as a launch point for the
surrounding coastline. Daily cruises leave the area for the glacial fjord of
Princess
Louisa Inlet, Chatterbox
Falls and the Princess
Louisa Marine Provincial Park, home to British
Columbia’s most stunning natural harbour. The town is also a starting
place for kayaking, cruising or diving the many bays and islands of the region.
Fearney Bluffs, Nelson Rock, and Anderson and Charles Islands, all popular diving
locations, are accessible from Madeira Park but only by boat. Welbourne
Cove, on the other hand, is a short walk away from the centre and has a
marina, picnic area and cultural centre.
