Best of Vancouver
More Info
|
+ My Favorites
One only has to look around to be inspired in Vancouver. Spectacular
mountains reach up out of the ocean and rub shoulders with gleaming
urban high-rises, stunning coastal waters intermingle with a vibrant
cosmopolitan centre and its people embrace each other, the environment
and a healthy dose of culture.
Campbell River: The World's Salmon Capital
More Info
|
+ My Favorites
Atop a townsite carved out of the surrounding rainforest, Campbell River is built facing east out over the narrow Discovery Passage. Located
on the east coast of Vancouver
Island, British Columbia,
Canada, Campbell
River is 153 km (96 mi) north of Nanaimo,
and 264 km (165 mi) north of British Columbia's capital city, Victoria.
Courtenay Rural Charm, Urban Allure
More Info
|
+ My Favorites
Comfortably ensconced in the lush Comox Valley, on the eastern side of British Columbia's Vancouver Island, Courtenay is known as the the valley's urban and cultural hub. Measuring 17.02 sq km (6.57 sq m), Courtenay is not a big city, yet features all the major amenities of a large Canadian centre. Encompassing everything from
Downtown Vancouver: The Terminal City's Vibrant Core
More Info
|
+ My Favorites
Downtown Vancouver is a fluid concept, as it runs into both the west end and the downtown eastside. Roughly, it is the area bounded by Burrard Street on the west, False Creek on the south, Vancouver Harbour on the north, and from the corner of Cordova and Granville to Science World, on False Creek on the east side.
Fernie: Frontier Mountain Village Meets Bohemian Tourist Haven
More Info
|
+ My Favorites
As the sun slowly sets over Fernie, the shadow of the Ghost Rider appears on
Mount Hosmer—just one of the reminders of an “Indian curse” that plagued the
valley for decades.
But despite this curse, to which many of the town's catastrophes are attributed,
Fernie has transformed itself into a prosperous, albeit smaller, tourist haven.
Best known for its ski resort with some of the deepest powder around, Fernie
is a four-season destination that also offers legendary
fishing, mountain
biking, golfing and hiking.
And while there is large-scale resort accommodations, chain restaurants and condo developments, a significant portion of Fernie remains untouched by
the modern world.
Kamloops - A WorldWeb.com Travel Guide Review
More Info
|
+ My Favorites
Placed conveniently on the Trans Canada Highway between the major cities of Calgary and Vancouver. Kamloops is a haven for anyone who loves the outdoors. No matter what season, there is always something to do here. A summer can be spent on one of several golf courses, hiking or mountain bike trails, and in winter the skis can be brought out for a run through the powder-covered hills.
Kelowna: Bask and Revel in the Hot Summer Sun
More Info
|
+ My Favorites
Kelowna may be the Okanagan's best kept secret. Its location puts travellers close to the west coast, skiing at Big White Ski Resort, orchards, vineyards and wineries within 10 minutes of the city, hiking in the Canadian Rockies and, of course, Okanagan Lake. Kelowna may be small, but it is not lacking in the comforts of larger centers. Kelowna is a small city with big city appeal.
Kimberley: A Touch of Bavaria in Southern BC
More Info
|
+ My Favorites
The resort town of Kimberley is located in the southeast corner of British Columbia, Canada, nestled between the Purcell and B.C. Rockies. Once known only as a simple mining town, Kimberley has transformed itself into a thriving community with a steady tourist stream. Its proximity to lakes and rivers make for some of the best fishing, canoeing and rafting in the area. Due to the mountainous terrain, there is wealth of challenging golf courses and hiking trails, as well as world-class skiing at Kimberley Alpine Resort. Known for its European flair and Bavarian theme, Kimberley was named the Bavarian City of the Rockies in the early 1970s.
Kootenay Rockies: Take a Peek at the Lush Life
More Info
|
+ My Favorites
Sand burning underfoot followed by the cool relief of a mountain lake, for many visitors the Kootenay Rockies are an ideal mix. Orchards, sand, water and mountains intertwine under a benevolent climate dishing out sultry summer days on lakes that reach past horizons.
Nanaimo: A Slice of the West Coast
More Info
|
+ My Favorites
There are very few cities whose names are synonymous with a dessert square, and perhaps none more famously than Nanaimo. Although it is the birthplace of the Nanaimo Bar, the city's name is believed to be derived from the name of the area's First Nations, the Snuneymuxw.
North Vancouver, British Columbia: Urban Shores
More Info
|
+ My Favorites
Although a part of the Greater Vancouver area, North Vancouver is a separate
community in its own right, and certainly has its share of appeal for
the visitor, in addition to what Vancouver itself has to offer.
With a striking location on the north shore of Burrard Inlet, across the
memorable Lion's Gate Bridge, North Vancouver is one of the most prestigious
urban addresses in Canada. This reputation is well deserved. Just driving
through its suburban streets admiring the incredible architecture makes
for a fascinating experience. The streets seem like the pages of an upmarket
home and garden magazine come to life.
Osoyoos: A Desert Oasis 
More Info
|
+ My Favorites
When most people think about Canada, they usually have thoughts of great snowy forests, epic rocky mountains, and majestic rivers and lakes. What they don't usually think about are deserts. While there are vast expanses in the northern areas of the country that receive little to no precipitation for the majority of the year, these spots in the tundra are usually so cold no one associates them with cacti and rolling dunes that deserts are famous for...
Powell River: Seaside City
More Info
|
+ My Favorites
With a municipal population of only about 13,000, Powell River hardly fits into the category of bustling metropolis. Yet visitors to this seaside city usually manage to find everything they're looking for and more. Like the rest of the Sunshine Coast, the main attraction of Powell River is its abundant outdoor activities.
Prince George: A Vibrant Hub of B.C.'s North
More Info
|
+ My Favorites
As visitors make their way to the city regarded as “British Columbia's Northern Capital,” they will encounter an interesting welcome by its official mascot. At the entrance to Prince George stands Mr. P.G., a permanently smiling log figure who greets newcomers to the area. One quick look at this towering structure is enough to
Prince Rupert-City of Rainbows
More Info
|
+ My Favorites
Located on the edge of the wilderness on British Columbia's northwest coast, Prince Rupert has a rugged beauty, surrounded by mountains, forests and lakes. Situated near the mouth of the Skeena River on Kaien Island, Prince Rupert has much to offer visitors.
Revelstoke: The Little Village at the End of the Railway
More Info
|
+ My Favorites
Home to the last spike of the Canadian Pacific Railway, the first North American ski jump and a gold rush that was worth about 3 million dollars, the community of Revelstoke is a place that celebrates its diverse past and present. Surrounded by mountains and the world’s only temperate inland rainforest, Revelstoke is also an all season destination that offers
Summerland in British Columbia's Okanagan
More Info
|
+ My Favorites
There's no town like it anywhere in the Okanagan Valley or in British Columbia,
for that matter. Summerland is a close-knit community of 12 thousand people
who bring warmth and spirit to their year round festivals and activities and
who take pride in their rich history, offering a wide range of agri-tourism
and heritage attractions. Old English Tudor architecture prevails throughout
its downtown streets, along with wrought iron lampposts, brick sidewalks, flower
planters, unique shops and a Town Crier crying "oyez" at almost every event
that occurs in town.
Thompson-Okanagan: The Land of Fresh Fruit & Fine Wine
More Info
|
+ My Favorites
Thompson-Okanagan is a region of great variety. People who live here can't imagine why anyone would want to go anywhere else, and after a visit you may ask yourself the same question.
Vancouver Island & the Pacific West Coast Islands: A Jewel & Its Gems
More Info
|
+ My Favorites
Scattered in the Pacific Ocean just off of mainland B.C. are a multitude of islands with gem-like brilliance. Some have emerald rainforests, others polished communities, and all are surrounded by crystal waters. Each precious rock, from large to small, has its own story and its own rhythm, appealing to a variety of residents and visitors.
Vancouver: A Seaside Metropolis
More Info
|
+ My Favorites
On the seaside of the Pacific Ocean, framed by snow capped coastal mountains
lies beautiful and vibrant Vancouver.
Vancouver is cosmopolitan in structure, events and attitude, yet is greatly
influenced by a remarkable natural setting. The combination of rich cultural
experiences and vast opportunities for exploring nature makes Vancouver an intriguing
destination.
Victoria: The City of Gardens
More Info
|
+ My Favorites
A glance at the long list of monikers that Victoria has acquired is an attestment to the eclectic and unique nature of British
Columbia's capital city. Located on the southern tip of Vancouver
Island, this historic city has been called everything from the official
pseudonym City of Gardens, to the Vacation Capital of Canada, to the tongue-in-cheek
nickname City of Newly-weds and Nearly-Deads (the city is equally well known
for its popularity as a honeymoon destination as for its large population of
retirees).
Whistler: Home of the Winter Olympics 2010
More Info
|
+ My Favorites
Whistler is without doubt one of the finest year-round resorts there is. It is most well known as a world class ski centre, but it is equally attractive as a summer destination with a wide range of activities. If you want, you can actually still ski in summer as some runs, on the glaciers high in the mountains are still open.
