Zeballos is a remote wilderness village situated on the Esperanza Inlet on the northeast coast of Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada. The village, previously was a gold mining town. Today it is reliant on the forestry, fishing and marine industries.
The community is isolated and is filled with small town charm accessed by gravel road or boat. The small town, because of its isolation, has a deep sea dock off for receiving cargo ships delivering supplies to the village.

Although lacking tour companies, the self guided outdoor enthusiast has plenty of room to explore. Esperanza Inlet, Nuchatlitz Inlet and the Bunsby Islands are some of the ocean destinations visited by outdoor enthusiasts who enjoy boating, kayaking and scuba diving.
