Okanagan Valley is home to mountain lookouts, biking trails, watersports and a lively local food scene — not to mention some of Canada’s warmest weather. This is Vaseux Lake, popular for both watersports and fishing.
Haida Gwaii is a torch-shaped archipelago sitting underneath the Alaska panhandle, and is over 90 nautical miles off British Columbia’s north coast.
James Cowpar describes the ocean around the Haida Gwaii archipelago as a highway of marine life, with seabirds, sea lions, seals, transient killer whales, humpbacks and minkes.
Haida Gwaii is a chain of around 150 islands off British Columbia’s northern coast, known for its diverse wildlife, temperate rainforests and remote beauty.
8. AMONG THE TREES British Columbia’s temperate rainforest — vast swathes of bottle-green spruce, cedar and fir that caress the Pacific along Canada’s westernmost shores — is one of the world’s rarest ecosystems. Trees tell a story, and as you walk past Douglas-firs, some more than a thousand years old, consider the comforting thought that here, nature flourishes. This is a province leading the way when it comes to sustainability, and while in places like the rugged, windswept and utterly spellbinding Haida Gwaii archipelago, follow the locals’ lead and explore by foot or electric bikes, stay in pioneering eco-lodges or join educational hiking trips.
