British Columbia
Canada's 1st. Amanresort
THE WATER:
Set within a vast, spiderweb-like network of water inlets, passages, islands, lakes, waterfalls and stunningly deep fjords formed by adjacent glacial activity, the proposed site for the Aman at Jervis Inlet occupies an area primarily characterized by water in all its forms : frozen, melting, flowing, rippling, falling, trickling, still and misting.
Water defines, and has defined, this region, the life of its indigenous inhabitants, its flora and fauna, climate and spirit since its origins.
Occupying a part of the British Columbia coastline that measures 16,000 miles in overall length, with over 40,000 islands, the site falls within the Coastal Western Hemlock biogeoclimatic zone, as well as the Pacific temperate rain forests ecoregion.
Isolated by lack of land access, the site and its surroundings affords moments of exquisite isolation in a variety of natural settings.
