Beaches
Find solitude on our beaches
Experiencing a Vancouver Island North beach means going deeper into the rugged beauty of remote coastlines, quiet beaches, and hidden treasures. Hike along the coastline as you take in the changing tides and views of nearby islands. Find a remote beach to embark on a wilderness camping adventure. Bring your binoculars to watch the shorebirds and eagles enjoy the gifts of the coast. These are some of our most beloved beaches to explore in Vancouver Island North.
