Cousins Inlet[1] is a fjord in the Central Coast region of the Canadian province of British Columbia. It extends north from Fisher Channel. At its head is the community of Ocean Falls.[2] It was first charted in 1793 by George Vancouver and Spelman Swaine, during their 1791–1795 expedition to survey the Pacific Northwest.[3]

Ocean Falls Water Aerodrome is located in the inlet, adjacent to the community of Ocean Falls.
