Grace Harbour is a harbour and traditional village site of the Tla'Amin peoples in the South Coast of British Columbia, located near Desolation Sound on the south side of the Gifford Peninsula opposite the Malaspina Peninsula to the southwest.〔(BC Names/GeoBC entry "Grace Harbour (harbour)" )〕 Along with the Gifford Peninsula, it is part of Desolation Sound Marine Provincial Park. Kahkaykay Indian Reserve No. 6 was located on the west side of the harbour but as of 2011 is now fee-simple land as a result of the Sliammon Treaty.〔(BC Names/GeoBC entry "Kahkaykay 6 (Indian reserve)" )〕 at The headland at the southwest corner of the harbour is similarly named from the name of the ancient village at this site (see below), Kakaekae Point,〔(BC Names/GeoBC entry "Kakaekae Point" )〕 at ==History== The native name of Grace Harbour in the language of the Tla'Amin, Ayeahjuthum (Mainland Comox), is ''K'ák'ik'i'',〔''Sliammon Life, Sliammon Lands'', Dorothy Kennedy & Randy Bouchard, BCILP, Talonbooks, Vancouver, 1983, quoted in BC Names/GeoBC entry]〕 anglicized as Kah kee ky or Kahkeeky, "camp overnight", believed to come from ''k'iymtan'', "camping place". The name refers to the waters of the harbour as well as a major village site on its shores where winter ceremonies were held encompassing all of the Tlo'hos (Klahoose) and Xwe'malhkwu (Homalco) and Tla'Amin (Sliammon) groups, who were all one until broken into separate bands by the colonization. An islet offshore from the village site was used as a speaking podium. There are numerous archaeological sites and trade trails in the area, which is still used by Tla'Amin for food-gathering and traditional medicines and is overlain with stories important to native culture. Native use of the site has been impaired because of the popularity of the area with tourists because of the provincial park.〔''Sliammon Traditional Use Study'', Sliammon Place Names Project & Sliammon Culture, Heritage and Language Committee 2010, quoted in BC Names/GeoBC entry.〕
