Another beautiful spot on Vancouver Island, Oyster River is a tiny rural community located just outside Campbell River. The quaint downtown offers a handful of restaurants and amenities, but the true draw of the area is the surrounding nature, which offers endless opportunities for swimming, hiking, and fishing. In the fall, visitors can also see salmon spawning in Black Creek and in the Oyster River. The area around the town is also a center for agricultural, and visitors can take an interactive tour of the local farms or stop by one of the wineries for a tasting.
