Queen Charlotte Channel is approximately 9 km long, and varies between 3 km and 5 km wide. The channel borders on to Strait of Georgia to the south (marked by the small Passage Island). And it borders on Howe Sound to the north (at the southernmost tip of Bowyer Island).

The channel was named after the Royal Navy ship HMS Queen Charlotte.[1]
