At the estuary of the Yakoun River, on the northeast shore of Masset Inlet, the logging and fishing village of Port Clements, once known as Queenstown, is a wonderful place to observe the giant trees of the temperate rainforest.

Established in 1907, Port Clements became the first incorporated town in the Queen Charlotte Islands in 1914, named after Herb S. Clements, the local member of parliament. Logging is the mainstay here, which thrived during the First World War when Port Clements became the supply centre for logging camps around Masset Inlet, harvesting giant spruce trees used in the construction of military airplanes for the war.

Population: 517

The village of Port Clements is situated just off Highway 16 at the centre of Graham Island, 45 minutes north of Queen Charlotte City, and 30 minutes south of Masset. The Haida Gwaii islands are accessed by ferry from Prince Rupert to the Skidegate Landing Ferry Terminal on Graham Island, by air from Vancouver to Sandspit on Moresby Island (770 km), and by air from Prince Rupert to Sandspit. Other commercial air services (including float planes and helicopters) are available at Sandspit, Queen Charlotte City and Masset. A 20-minute ferry ride connects Graham and Moresby Islands.

Scuba Diving is available through dive companies operating out of Port Clements and Masset, and fishing, hiking and kayaking are the main recreational activities in and around Port Clements.

Kayaking: Paddlers can launch their kayaks in Masset Inlet, or drive south to Juskatla and launch on Juskatla Inlet, for more protected waters and quiet bays.

Fishing: Fishermen can test their skills on the Yakoun River, famous for its steelhead, as well as the Mamin River. The Yakoun and Mamin River systems together include all 5 species of Pacific salmon (chinook, coho, chum, pink and sockeye), as well as rainbow trout, cutthroat trout and Dolly Varden char.

The Yakoun River is the only stream system on the Queen Charlotte Islands that naturally supports a chinook salmon stock. This wild stock is enhanced by the efforts of the Yakoun River (Marie Lake) Fish Hatchery. The Yakoun River is also a major producer of steelhead in Haida Gwaii, offering great salmon and steelhead fishing.

The Mamin River, which flows into Juskatla Inlet, supports a good run of coho salmon from mid September to mid October, and a good steelhead run from January to March. The Port Clements Salmon Enhancement Club works on the Mamin River and provides Yakoun River chinook to the Port Clements school feeding and release program.

There's a boat launch and picnic facilities at Mayer Lake, midway between Tlell and Port Clements, and wilderness camping along the lakeshore for people making extended fishing voyages. Mayer Lake and Tlell River are the most accessible freshwater fishing spots in Naikoon Provincial Park.

Pure Lake Provincial Park is a popular swimming and picnicking spot encompassing and protecting Pure Lake, located about 15 kilometres south of Masset on the island highway. No camping facilities are available at the park, but public toilets, picnic tables and firepits are provided.

Logging Roads: The network of logging backroads south to Queen Charlotte City is open to the public after working hours only. A logging road map and clearance are available from Juskatla.
