Nanaimo—Cowichan—The Islands was a federal electoral district in British Columbia, Canada, that was represented in the Canadian House of Commons from 1962 to 1979.
This riding was created in 1962 from Nanaimo. The 1966 electoral redistribution saw this riding gain territory from Metchosin and lose territory in the northern end toward the Englishman River. This riding was dissolved into Cowichan—Malahat—The Islands and Nanaimo—Alberni in 1979.
