Review & FAQ:

Rathtrevor Beach Provincial Park in Parksville, British Columbia, is the 347-hectare park with a 2-kilometer long wide sandy beach surrounded by a stand of magnificent old-growth Douglas firs. There is a large campground in the park for those who need more time to explore this spectacular corner of British Columbia. The beach attracts visitors year round and at low tide visitors can walk into the Strait of Georgia for almost a kilometer. The beach is a prime location for long walks along the surf, making sandcastles in the humid sand, and bird watching. There are almost 5 kilometers of trails leading from the beach into the surrounding park. Birdwatches can enjoy watching gulls, brants, and birds of prey in their natural environment.
