Visitor roles and responsibilities

Visitor requests are approved on a first-come first-served basis.

Weather conditions may result in the delay or cancellation of my trip.

I assume the role of primary point-of-contact for my group.

I will review information that Parks Canada provides.

I will ensure that all members of my group are aware and respectful of all measures in place to protect visitors, staff, wildlife, and the island.

If our visit is approved, I understand that my group must be self-reliant and responsible for our own safety.
