This prominent low-elevation peninsula is a significant wilderness area protecting heritage sites, representative old-growth forest stands of Sitka spruce, lodgepole pine, white pine and yellow-cedar and a freshwater lake. The park also encompasses a variety of coastal ecosystems including extensive off-shore reefs, boulder, cobble and sand beaches, sea caves, sheltered bays, kelp beds and mudflats.

Kayaking along the shores of the Hesquiat Peninsula is recommended for experienced paddlers only. This undeveloped wilderness park has no facilities, however backcountry camping is allowed.
