Description From Owner:
Miracle Beach Park
- Miracle Beach Park - The story goes that after the Cape Mudge Indians had befriended a supernatural stranger, giving him food and shelter, he rewarded them with wealth and prosperity but warned them not to become proud in consequence.
- When they became overweening, however, the Cowichans attacked them. The stranger came a second time and saved them. As a reminder of the lesson taught to them, he worked a great miracle, turning an Indian princess into Mitlenatch Island.
