Top 10 Nature & Wildlife Areas in Sunshine Coast, Sunshine Coast

September 8, 2021 Leida Jutras

British Columbia's Sunshine Coast does seem to get more than its fair share of great weather, plus breathtaking scenery and friendly coastal villages to discover. The beaches are best in summer, but the natural beauty is year-round. Travelers rave about swimming while gazing up at the mountains, or just relaxing in a romantic B&B while the setting sun paints a canvas of color over the water.

Princess Louisa Inlet

Reviewed By robino525 - Nanaimo, Canada

Spent a week sailing from Nanaimo to the end of Princess Louisa Inlet and the beautiful Chatterbox Falls and back to Nanaimo. This is a wonderful trip through some of the most beautiful waters on the East side of Vancouver Island. From Nanaimo you sale to the east side of Texada Island, to Jarvis Inlet, to Princess Louisa Inlet to be rewarded by the spectacular Chatterbox Falls. The traces of water from the highest peaks all cascading and joining to form Chatterbox Falls and tumble mightily into the ocean inlet. This trip is beautiful and rewarding at every turn. This destination can only be made by water. We sailed and the rythym of the water and the pace of the journey was it's own reward.

Soames Hill (aka Knob Hill)

Reviewed By hockeye44 - Sechelt, Canada

The view from Soames Hill is totally worthy of taking photos of to show others. My wife and I climbed up to the top and it was well worth the effort. The original route has been improved making the summit even easier to access than it was years ago.
