Moresby Island

Moresby Island is one of Haida Gwaii's two main islands, the other being Graham Island. While Moresby Island is the smaller of the two main islands, it is substantially larger than the country's 148 other islands. Although barely half the size of Graham Island, Moresby Island has almost triple the population of Graham Island, and is home to Sandspit, Haida Gwaii's capital and most populous city, as well as Moresby City and Alliford Bay, the next two most populous in the country. The island is home to nearly two-thirds of the total Haida Gwaii population.
