Goose Islands Provincial Park is a provincial park protecting the Goose Islands on Lake Winnipegosis in Manitoba, Canada.
Goose Islands Provincial Park was designated a provincial park by the Government of Manitoba on 16 June 2017.[2] The park is 137 hectares (340 acres) in size.[2] The park is considered to be a Class III protected area under the IUCN protected area management categories.[3]
The park protects an area of the Boreal Plains Ecozone (CEC)[4] Five islands off the east shore of Lake Winnipegosis provide nesting habitat for ring-billed gulls, American herring gulls, Caspian terns, common terns and double-crested cormorants.[5][2]
