Parker is located beside Galiano Island. Named after Lieutenant George
Ferdinand Hastings Parker, R.N. of H.M.S Ganges, flag ship of Rear Admiral
Baynes.
Parker Island is just under 162 hectares in size. It is divided into about 37
lots, with some park areas. Most lots have a drilled well, and shared access
to a community dock.
Parker is host to the hydro towers, cables, and transformers that help
bring power from Galiano Island to Salt Spring Island. Naturally this makes
Parker one of the best of the small islands for access to electricity.
Some of the oceanfronts face back to Galiano, across Montague Harbour. The
Trincomali side of the Island faces across to Salt Spring. Some people live
there year-round, while others are seasonal residents.
