Englishman River Falls Provincial Park is a provincial park in British Columbia, Canada. It is located west of Parksville on Vancouver Island. Short hiking trails and bridges access both upper and lower falls. The campground has 103 sites and about half can be reserved. A First Nations legend mentions the skeleton of a white man found near the falls, hence its name.
