Only accessible by boat or plane, The Sunshine Coast is a gorgeous 110-mile stretch of coastline cut off from the rest of the province by a rugged mountain range. It's dotted with artsy villages, picturesque parks, and secluded beaches, so there's truly something for everyone to enjoy. Art lovers can spend the day browsing some of the 100 unique art galleries, while outdoor enthusiasts can kayak down the Powell River or hike along one of the area's many trails. Before heading back to Vancouver, stop by Persephone Brewing’s “beer farm” to enjoy a cold beer and a beautiful view.
