Journey Along the Pacific Frontier


The Infinite Coast stretches along British Columbia’s wild Pacific edge, uniting Vancouver Island, the Sunshine Coast and the Great Bear Rainforest in a landscape where mountains, fjords and ancient forests meet the sea. This region invites travellers to slow down, connect with nature and explore communities shaped by deep cultural roots and coastal traditions.

Explore lively harbours, gardens and galleries before venturing toward quieter corners of the coast. Whale watching may reveal orcas or humpbacks slicing through the Salish Sea, while rainforest retreats offer the chance to observe bears foraging along tidal inlets or to learn about the First Nations communities who call this coastline home. Scenic ferry rides, floatplane flights and sweeping coastal highways connect charming towns, artisan centres, surf-washed beaches and pristine coves. Deeper inland, dramatic mountain landscapes, emerald lakes and accessible glacier viewpoints extend the adventure.

From vibrant cities to remote wilderness, each step offers a new way to experience British Columbia’s natural beauty.

Let British Columbia inspire your next getaway – plan your trip today.
