The Village of Queen Charlotte, more commonly known as Queen Charlotte City, is a village municipality on the Queen Charlotte Islands of the Province of British Columbia, Canada. It is located on the southern end of Graham Island at Skidegate Inlet and part of Skeena-Queen Charlotte Regional District.
Today, many inhabitants are still working in these resource-based jobs but recently a shift towards more tourism-oriented employment has been observed.
Queen Charlotte City became incorporated in 2005 and now offers several motels, shops, restaurants, crafts and car repair shops, banks, an RCMP station and a hospital.
It is also the seat of the main Queen Charlotte Islands Visitor Centre. This town with its small harbour is often the starting-point for chartered tours into Gwaii Haanas National Park Reserve and Haida Heritage Site on southern Moresby Island.
Queen Charlotte City is just 4km to Skidegate with its BC Ferries landing and connections to Prince Rupert.
