Coast Gravity Park

You can also book the entire Coast Gravity park if you want to plan a group camp & ride getaway.

Sechelt Inlet Kayaking & Paddleboarding

Porpoise Bay and Sechelt Inlet up to Tuwanek are relatively sheltered waters compared to the 'oceanside' (Davis Bay or Halfmoon Bay). The inlet has many more wind-friendly days and there's plenty to see: the working parts of the harbour (be aware of floatplanes from the two terminals), parks and beaches, sub-community waterfronts, and wilder areas with seals, eagles, shorebirds and even whales or porpoises on occasion!

From Bayside Campground, it is only a short walk to the waterfront with a perfect launching spot for your kayak or paddleboard. Porpoise Bay Provincial Park is a 2 min drive and another great spot to start your day on the water.

Hiking

The Coast is an excellent destination for hiking. There are easy, flat trails in Porpoise Bay Provincial Park, a waterfall 2 minutes up the road from Bayside, the Tetrahedron backcountry accessed via Tuwanek, and beautiful Hidden Grove trails in Sandy Hook, 10 minutes away.

Further up the Sunshine Coast Highway is Smuggler's Cove Provincial Park, Homesite Creek trails & caves, Big Tree, Sargeant Bay's Triangle Lake trail system, and in Pender you can choose from the shorter Pender Hill hike for expansive views over Pender Harbour and the Salish Sea, or do the more advanced Mount Daniel hike. Trails are reasonably quiet even in high season.

Of course no visit to the Coast is complete without a hike out to see the world-famous Skookumchuck Rapids. Stop at the Sechelt Visitor Centre to find out best viewing times and then allow for 45 minutes each way for the hike.
