Gulf of Georgia Cannery National Historic Site

The Gulf of Georgia Cannery is the largest commercial small-craft fishing port in Canada. Built in 1894, the Cannery was once the largest of its kind. Now a National Historic Site, the exhibits showcase the stories of Canada’s West Coast fishing industry.

Explore the museum’s new exhibits free of charge, or hone your artistic skills at a guided art workshop highlighting traditional cultural art forms that sustainably use fish.
