Port Edward blends waterfront living with everyday convenience, set just a short drive from Prince Rupert along scenic Highway 16. Salt air, mountain views, and the Skeena River estuary shape daily life here, while the District of Port Edward provides community amenities, local services, and a busy events calendar that keeps neighbors connected.
History is front and center at the North Pacific Cannery National Historic Site, where wooden boardwalks, exhibits, and guided tours bring the North Coast’s fishing legacy to life. For a one-of-a-kind getaway, the heritage waterfront suites at Cassiar Cannery pair eagle watching and tide changes with cozy, modern comforts. Outdoor days come easy: launch a kayak into calm channels, cast for salmon, or wander family-friendly trails toward viewpoints and coastal rainforest. Nearby lakes and day-use areas offer quick escapes for picnics, paddling, and photography.
Families appreciate the small-school feel at Port Edward Elementary under School District 52, with supportive teachers and programs that plug into the region’s arts, culture, and sport. Groceries, healthcare, and dining are close at hand in Prince Rupert, while weekend road trips span the Skeena Valley to Terrace, coastal channels around Kitimat, or powder days near Smithers.
