Kin Park.

Kin Park is a small beach park located in the community of Chemainus, BC on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. The beach park is a popular spot for beachcombing, sightseeing, picnicking, swimming and for launching a boat.

The waterfront park includes a children's playground and sand box, a sandy beach, picnic tables, grassy lawns, change rooms and a paved boat launch.

Kin Park is an ideal destination for marine sightseeing and birdwatching. From the shoreline one can see Bird Rock, Tent Island and a beacon sitting on a point. There are recreation boats and sailboats moored off shore. Some are planning on going fishing while others are soon departing on a boat cruise.

At low tides the ocean waters recede revealing wet sand, seaweed, tidal pools and stranded shells. It is during low tides visitors can actually walk out to Bird Rock.

The park is within walking distance of downtown Chemainus and the Thetis Island Ferry Terminal. Just up the hill from the fery terminal is a pathway leading back to Waterwheel Park.

Some of the marine wildlife viewed from the beach shore include Bald Eagles, Blue Herons and seagulls.
