Hevenor Inlet extends eastward from Petrel Channel on the northwest side of Pitt Island, British Columbia, Canada.[2]

The inlet is entered between Stark Point[3] and Hevenor Point,[4] and contains Clark[5] and Hevenor[6] islets. A narrow entrance connects the inlet to Hevenor Lagoon[7] 4 nautical miles (7.4 km; 4.6 mi) southeast of the head of the inlet.[8]

Two Indian Reserves adjoin the inlet, Pitt Island 27[9] on the north shore near the entrance, and Ketai 28[10] midway down the south shore.

Hevenor Inlet is surrounded by waterfalls, including the Cascades, a linear series of waterfalls at the head of the inlet.
