Chemainus Bay (48°56'N., 123°43'W.) is entered between Bare Point (48°56'N., 123°42'W.) and Hospital Point. The sides of this bay are steep to, but drying flats extend from the head into depths of 11 to 46m. These flats are used as booming grounds for logs discharged from a railroad pier. A conspic uous water tower stands at the SW side of the bay and a prominent generating plant, with several oil tanks, is situated on the E side.
