Sightseeing

Excellent beach with vast expanses of sand, room to explore, and swimming void of seaweed. The stairs are well worth the trip up & down! Also, a popular spot for local fitness.

Best lake on the island - two separate beaches for swimming (one with a lifeguard), small playground, easy access for paddleboarding with rentals nearby, and a 6km trail around the lake popular with walkers & joggers alike.

Great beachfront with seawall, Drip Coffee Shop, park/playground, and waterpark across the street. The best place to watch the ferries come and go.

Beautiful walk through the forest set on the ocean. Equipped with stretches of boardwalk, trails, and beaches it is an excellent way to spend an afternoon or just go for a quick walk. Whales, seal lions, and seals are often spotted here.
