Savary Island BC

Billed as BC's tropical paradise, Savary Island is a fun summer day trip by water taxi from Lund, just north of Powell River on what is known as BC's Sunshine Coast. Hike over the summit of the island to the south side where white sand beaches and a few friendly crabs scurrying by under the water await. And don't miss the bakery in Lund before or after your trip!

Elk Falls Campground, Campbell River BC

Use Elk Falls as your base camp and nearby river fishing, while taking fishing charters on Discovery Passage in the salmon fishing capital of the world. Located on the Georgia Strait on the northern half of Vancouver Island, Campbell River is a friendly town with plenty of fishing and hiking opportunities.

Whistler Blackcomb BC

Great way to experience this ski resort in the summer. Take the Whistler ski chair up to catch the 4.4 km Peak2Peak Gondola that travels over the huge valley separating Whistler Mtn from Blackcomb Mtn. Nice day hiking on Blackcomb before taking one more ski lift back down to the village. Site of 2010 Winter Olympics, the skiing here must be pretty fabulous.
