Nicols Cove 1 Camp
Nicols Cove 1 Camp
Nicols Cove 1 (NC1) is a backcountry campsite on the coastal paddling route of Pukaskwa National Park, situated along the rugged northeastern shore of Lake Superior.
It shares a double-site arrangement with NC2 at Nicols Cove, roughly 13 km from Oiseau Bay to the north and 5 km from Simons Harbour to the south.
The cove offers welcome shelter on a lake known for unpredictable weather, and the site features a sandy beach where paddlers can rest after a demanding stretch of open water.
When departing southward, an early start is recommended; in rough conditions, the numerous small coves along the route provide useful refuge.
