Honeymoons in Halfmoon Bay
Considered one of British Columbia's best kept secrets, Halfmoon Bay is a hidden slice of paradise. It's one of several pocket-sized communities on the Sunshine Coast, a secluded stretch of BC that is accessible only by ferry, boat or sea plane. The vibe is laidback and bohemian, with a string of local galleries, artisan workshops and organic cafes to explore. Thanks to its "off the grid" feel, Halfmoon Bay is a favorite with lovebirds. Whether you are planning a honeymoon or a romantic weekend getaway, secluded Halfmoon Bay vacation rentals tick all the boxes.
Beaver encounters in Halfmoon Bay
If you're in search of R&R, you've come to the right place. Halfmoon Bay swaps big-ticket attractions for a wonderland of rugged coastlines, sandy beaches and shimmering tide pools. Halfmoon Bay vacation rentals make the most of the setting, with beautiful waterfront cottages commanding sweeping views over the Salish Sea and Vancouver Island. You can stretch your legs at Smuggler Cove Provincial Park, where scenic hiking trails wind through lush coastal rainforest. If beavers are on your Canadian wish list, don't miss the chance to kayak around the wetlands, where you could spot the bucktoothed rodents renovating their dams.
Beach hopping in Halfmoon Bay
In the summer, seaside lovers can take their pick from multiple beaches, each with its own unique charms. Fringed by a grassy foreshore, Coopers Green is a great place to swim, paddleboard or enjoy a farm-to-table inspired picnic. For a change of scene, head up the coast to Secret Cove. It's dotted with marinas that lure a constant stream of local pleasure crafts. If you want to jump aboard, sign up for a sailboat tour with one of the local operators.
Worlds away in Halfmoon Bay
While it's just a few hours from Vancouver, Halfmoon Bay feels worlds away from the city. The tightknit community sits on the Sunshine Coast, a southern stretch of British Columbia's Lower Mainland. On a clear day, you'll get stunning views of Vancouver Island across the aquamarine Salish Sea. Halfmoon Bay is surrounded by a quintet of Sunshine Coast regional parks, including Smuggler Cove, Simpson and Sargeant Bay. Birders will be reaching for the binoculars, with the chance to spot red-beaked oystercatchers, blue herons and bald eagles soaring overhead.
