3. Roberts Creek Park – Toilets, potable water, picnic sites and swimming areas. Identifiable by the large stone jetty. Despite what some charts say, there are no tanks on the jetty. Anchorage here is not recommended. Bridge over the creek, tidal references are from Point Atkinson.


4. White Islets – These are large white rocks that are used as marks in sailboat races. They are marked by a flashing light on the west side. A seagull colony was reported in 1958. The S.S. Cowichan was lost 1 1/2 mile south of the Islets in 1925 in more than 400 feet of water and is home now to an abundance of sea life (UASBC).


5. Wilson Creek – A small settlement identifiable by a large stone jetty. A rock breakwater across the entrance to Wilson Cr. protects the area.


6. Chapman Creek – Be cautious here. A sand and gravel flat extends 1000 feet out and can be dangerous even at high water. Residential areas on the east and west side of the point.


7. Davis Bay Wharf – No diving off the wharf and no bicycles on the wharf. Beware of underwater hazards and keep your eyes open for a fisherman atop one of the piles who is always there. Beach and swimming area to the west.
