The Region Beside the Sea
Perched over the sheltered waters of Vancouver Island's Inside Passage and protected by Mt. Arrowsmith, Parksville, Qualicum Beach and the charming villages referred to as the Oceanside region, are the ideal jam-packed vacation destination. Your Vancouver Island trip to Oceanside, which also includes Lighthouse Country, Nanoose Bay, French Creek and Arrowsmith Coombs Country, will stun you with its beauty and keep you engaged and entertained.

A Parksville vacation includes a treasure trove of unforgettable scenery and villages filled with restaurants, craft fairs and farmer's markets. There is something for every interest here, including Milner Gardens and Woodland, a 70 acre estate with walking paths, and Butterfly World and Gardens with Canada's largest exhibit of orchids.

Sunrise Ridge, in this epicenter of nature's splendour, is the perfect base for your Parksville vacation.
