Activities
Whether you decide to hike a mountain, take a wine country tour, tackle the rapid waters, take in the wildlife, or just soak in a relaxing sunset, there’s something here for everyone.
Transportation
Travelling north on Highway 19 takes approximately 2 hours (153 kilometres / 95 miles) from Nanaimo or 3.5 hours (264 kilometres / 165 miles) from Victoria. When the Inland Island Highway was completed in 2001, it reduced driving time to Campbell River by an hour. See the most of Campbell River by exiting Highway 19 at the Miracle Beach exit, then continue north along Oceanside Route Highway 19A. (Motorcoach travel to Campbell River is available through Island Coach Lines.) If you prefer a fully serviced highway route, follow the starfish along the scenic Oceanside Route, Highway 19A. Look for the official "starfish" signs south of Parksville and at other exits along Highway 19. Why not travel north to Campbell River on the scenic Oceanside Route 19A, then head home via the Inland Island Highway 19?
Food & Drink
Thanks to an abundance of farms, wineries, breweries and cideries that work with award-winning chefs and vintners, the province has become a destination for serious foodies and dining connoisseurs. Many restaurants incorporate fresh BC ingredients in their dishes, and there are dining options that cover every type of global cuisine. Culinary tours or cooking classes are an excellent way to learn to prepare (and to taste) local specialties.Unfortunately there are no hotels at this location at the moment.
