Longbeak Point

Longbeak Point (49˚37'00" 124˚50'00" N tip of Denman I, Str of Georgia). RN surveyor Capt George Richards named this feature Beak Point on one of his early coastal surveys, and the N end of Denman is shaped surprisingly like a seabird’s elongated head and bill. It was renamed Longbeak Point in 1923, presumably because the name Beak Point was duplicated elsewhere.
