Hydrology
Waddington Channel connects Desolation Sound to the south with Pryce Channel to the north. Pendrell Sound branches off of the main channel to the northeast, deeply incising East Redonda Island.
The channel contains two major islands: Allies Island[2] and Elworthy Island.[3]
The northern hydrological limit of Waddington Channel delineates part of the northern limit of the Salish Sea.[4]
