A 40 minute direct ferry ride from the Tsawwassen ferry terminal, Galiano Island is a fabulous day trip destination for those seeking a taste of the Gulf Islands. From the spectacular white shell midden beaches at Montague Harbour, to the sandstone caves at Dionisio Point, to the art galleries and bohemian culture and shops at Sturdies Bay, this island's a wonderful place to explore for those looking to get away from the hustle and bustle. Note that the island is rather hilly and destinations are spread out. Having a car is recommended.

200 artists from along the west coat and across the country all contributed to this stunning 11 foot by 21 foot mural. This is at the Galiano Inn and Spa and you can buy copies of it. It's beautiful.

This overlooks Porlier Pass and you can only get to it by boat. You can walk in camp and fish. We kayaked and it was amazingly beautiful and peaceful . Some people were scuba diving.

Located at Montague Marina on Galiano Islands we are the only spot to Rent Mopeds, eBikes and Boats with O/B motors.
Rented a moped with my girlfriend to explore the island. We wouldn't have done it any other way. Frank gives great recommendations for spots to check out along the way, and you get to see so much in a 3-4 hour ride. What a way to spend the day. Thanks Frank!

Easy hike from a switchback road. It's only a short trek to the first viewpoint and then you can walk the ridge.

Escape the city life for the day! Hop on a 1 hour ferry from Vancouver or Victoria and be picked up and dropped back off at the end of the day by us! Galiano Island is the secret of all secrets, known for beautiful sandy secluded beaches and a hiking Mecca. Mix in an art studio tour while your here, Galiano is home to several world renowned artists. Come for the day and I guarantee you'll want to come back for a weekend. You can also book a flight from YVR south terminal on Seair in the morning and be back in Vancouver that night. Book in adavance, we will take care of the rest. Moorage at Montague Marina, by far one of the best Marinas in the Gulf Islands. Who needs a vehicle! Galiano Island is ideal for day trippers & small getaways! See you this summer :)

We bring you the ultimate Galiano cycling experience with our powerful, yet safe and easy to ride e-bikes. The hills of Galiano are now no match for anyone willing to do a moderate amount of peddling with our top notch electric pedal assist bikes. We went with fat tire bikes knowing they would give you the best and most comfortable ride possible on our island roads. Galiano has many great public beach access to explore, not to mention all the friendly people, art galleries/shops & food!

my husband and I had the pleasure of an hour and a half couples massage in one of the waterfall huts , even with the rain the huts are warm and comfortable . The spa is clean and inviting , the staff were wonderful and looked after our every need while at the spa . I would have loved to try one of the float rooms if we had time .
