The Sunshine Coast

A natural paradise blessed with mild winters, beautiful surroundings, and showcasing the best aspects of outdoor adventure, arts, and culture. Bordered by rugged mountains and blue ocean waters, situated on a peninsula (not an island) in the ancestral lands of the shíshálh (Sechelt) and Skwxwú7mesh (Squamish) First Nations, this is the Sunshine Coast. Whatever hobby or interest you might enjoy, we have it right here. Hike the trails, get out in a kayak, try golfing, swimming, fishing, cross-country skiing, attend festivals, visit museums, go whale-watching, or any of the other recreational activities that are right at our doorstep. Big city life is only a 40-minute ferry ride away. A preferred tourist destination, a great place to live and play, now is the time to consider making this amazing place your home.
