Sunshine Coast
British Columbia, Canada

The Sunshine Coast is a popular waterfront destination with endless moments of marine activity and wildlife viewing opportunities. Days end on the Sunshine Coast with hours on hours of relaxation and begin with days on days of exploring. The rugged, remote back country filled with hundreds of lakes provides hours, days and weeks of outdoor adventures. The serene wilderness environment is home to many locals, artists, and to the First Nation people.

The Sunshine Coast coastal shoreline and outlying communities are best accessed by pleasure boat, BC Ferry, kayak or floatplane. There are no paved roads leading into the Sunshine Coast region because of the towering mountain ranges looming in the background cutting off the valley from the rest of British Columbia.

Plus, combined with the thick forests, the many lakes and rivers of the region - the Sunshine Coast is literally boxed in by nature. A real good situation for enjoying wide open spaces without the nearby big city distractions.

Beautiful sandy beaches, untouched remote lakes and beautiful wilderness mountain vistas are just a few of the memories taken home while traveling around the Sunshine Coast by foot, boat, kayak, canoe, mountain bike or from a vehicle.

The Sunshine Coast is a popular destination for many seeking an outdoor adventure like scuba diving, golfing, fishing, hiking, wilderness camping, canoeing, kayaking, boating, bird watching, backpacking, snowshoeing and mountain biking.

If a more relaxed vacation is in mind, the Sunshine Coast does not disappoint. There are many opportunities to lounge around on any of the many beaches, restaurants, outdoor patios or take some time exploring beach walks, art galleries, artist studios, marinas, retail shops and picnic parks.
