Pearse Islands

The Pearse Islands are a small group of islands in the Queen Charlotte Strait region of the Central Coast of British Columbia, Canada.

They are just east of Cormorant Island (British Columbia), which is the location of the Village of Alert Bay.

[1] Cormorant Channel Marine Provincial Park is located in this group of islands.

[5] Like the Pearse Peninsula on nearby Broughton Island, the islands were named in 1860 for Commander William Alfred Rumbulow Pearse, RN, who commanded HMS Alert in the area from 1858 to 1861.
