Gabriola Passage, Race Rocks, Endeavour Hydrothermal Vents, and Bowie Seamount are biologically rich and exceptional areas on Canada's Pacific Coast. They represent unique ecosystems that support diverse life forms that, in some cases, have not been identified elsewhere in the world. The Endeavour Hydrothermal Vents was designated as Canada's first Marine Protected Area (MPA). In the case of Race Rocks and Bowie Seamount, significant progress has been made towards designating these sites a Marine Protected Areas.
