Dining

Dine at Shearwater Resort in one of our two restaurant locations. During the summer months we have Hṃ́zílás Restaurant, located in the K̓álílṃ Lodge on the ocean front. In Heiltsuk language Hṃ́zílás means ‘Restaurant’ or ‘Cafe’. This restaurant offers a more refined menu, a quieter dining experience, and spectacular views of the water and the fish dock.

Náǧílás du Hṃgíláilas, also known as Fishermen’s Bar & Grill at Shearwater Resort is a welcoming, dockside pub that perfectly complements the rugged beauty of Denny Island. Situated just steps from the marina it serves as a relaxed hub for guests and locals alike. Fishermen’s caters to both dine‑in and take‑out. In Heiltsuk language, Náǧílás du Hṃgíláilas means Bar and place of cooking.
