Naikoon Provincial Park is a provincial park on northeastern Graham Island in the Haida Gwaii archipelago, British Columbia, Canada. It is the ancestral home of the Gwak'rala'chala people, one of the many tribes that form the native group Haida. While it is a popular destination for adventurous campers, it is also very secluded, being over 16 km (9.9 mi) away from Masset.
