Recreation
on Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands of British Columbia requires
very little introduction - the opportunities are endless! One could
spend several months in the region and still not exhaust all possibilities:
hiking and camping in the wilderness and forested regions, mountain
biking along remote trails, or scuba diving in waters surpassed
only by the Red Sea.

Adventurers
will delight in the great diversity of outdoor recreation offered
on Vancouver Island, with hiking, backpacking, camping, mountain
biking, skiing, snowboarding, and golf being just a few of the
exciting activities drawing outdoor enthusiasts and travellers
to the island, the Gulf Islands and Sunshine Coast.

The waters
around Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands are an underwater
paradise for diving enthusiasts, "..second only to the Red Sea",
according to Jacques Cousteau! If inland waters are preferred,
the island boasts hundreds of idyllic freshwater lakes and rivers,
many of which are very remote and unspoilt.
