Captain Cove

Canada

Captain Cove (Kla’tin) is a cove located on Pitt Island, British Columbia, Canada. It was named after Captain Holmes Newcombe of the Fisheries Department. The cove is 1 nmi (1.9 km, 1.2 mi) long and between 0.125–0.375 nmi (0.232–0.695 km, 0.144–0.432 mi) wide, and contains several islets, approximately 0.5 nmi (0.93 km, 0.58 mi) east of Captain Point. The cove is underlain by the large 100 by 25 km (62 by 16 mi) Captain Cove Pluton dating to the Albian (109±6Ma). The cove preserves a record of intense prehistoric use, with a few large shell middens and several small shell middens associated with creeks flowing into the cove.
