Sointula Museum
Water bottle refillWashrooms
The Sointula Museum traces the 125-year history of a Finnish socialist Utopian settlement on Malcolm Island, housed in the former Malcolm Island Superior School. Three exhibition rooms cover everything from Indigenous presence and early settler life to the fishing industry, a legendary town midwife, and a working 1905 fog-horn from Pulteney Point Lighthouse. Reaching Sointula requires a BC Ferries crossing, making the museum a natural anchor for cyclists exploring this remote island community between Vancouver Island and the BC mainland.
