Common questions

Can I visit the islands?
The Native Land Conservancy has said it hopes to offer respectful public access, including possible canoe tours, but there's no formal dock or trail system yet, so visits are informal paddle-up stops.
Is there an entry fee at Wakeby Islands?
No, entry is free.
What rules should I know at Wakeby Islands?
There is no dock or marked landing, so paddlers should expect an unimproved, potentially rocky or muddy shoreline when coming ashore.
