Malaspina Galleries

The Malaspina Galleries are located at the northwestern tip of Gabriola Island, about 3km from the ferry terminal. This will take about 40 minutes on foot and just 10 on a bike.

Gabriola Island can be reached using the regular BC ferry service that operates roughly once every hour. The ferry takes cars, bikes, and passengers. The terminal for this service is located in the center of Nanaimo, to the right of the marina.

You can rent bikes from Gabriola CyQle, which is about 1.5km from the ferry terminal. This is an inexpensive way to travel around the island, which can easily be done in a day. The appropriately named North Road and South Road connect up most of the island.

If appropriate to reach this adventure, rent a car, or better still, reduce the demand for cars with Evo Car Share, Vancouver's car sharing network.
