Ruby Lake Lagoon Nature Reserve
The Ruby Lake Lagoon Nature Reserve is a 10 hectare (25 acre) reserve featuring a freshwater lagoon and forested acreage located along a scenic section of Highway 101 between Pender Harbour and Egmont. The site is extremely diverse both in terms of the large variety of habitats and the abundance of different animals and plants. The Lagoon is already well known by bird lovers and has been identified by the Wild Bird Trust as one of the most important bird habitats on the Coast.
The Reserve is en route to the Sunshine Coast ferry services and flanked by the Sunshine Coast Trail network. It is centrally located within 10 km of several Provincial and Marine Parks and an Ecological Reserve. Thus, it is an ideal location to highlight these natural features and offer interpretive facilities on the mountain, wetland and marine habitats and wildlife of the region. The natural attractions within the Reserve will be further enhanced by restoration of a 4 hectare wetland area south of the Lagoon
