Haida Gwaii - Queen Charlotte Islands and Prince Rupert

This gallery features photos taken around Prince Rupert and the Haida Gwaii (Queen Charlotte) Islands in British Columbia's North West. The photos are of nature, wildlife, scenic, city, Haida Gwaii art and various other interesting things.

Each community is unique and collectively they offer a wonderful insight into island living.
