Bain Creek Recreation Site sits on the west side of Howe Sound, six kilometres north of Port Mellon, along the Sea to Sky Marine Trail.

The best landing is a cleared boat run at the creek mouth, with a log kayak rack just above in the forest and a log bridge crossing the creek. The site is maintained by the Sea Kayak Association of BC (SKABC).

Across the creek, a level clearing holds a picnic table, two bear-proof food caches, and space for four tents. A trail climbs to five levelled tent sites in the forest, a composting toilet, and a rock bluff with expansive views.

Bain Creek itself is considered a reliable year-round water source, making it a useful stop for multi-day paddlers on the trail.
