With Vancouver a 40-minute ferry ride away, the Sunshine Coast is a preferred tourist destination and a great place to live and play. Hike the trails, kayak, swim, golf, or try your hand at any of the other recreational activities at our doorstep. Now is the time to consider making this amazing place your home.
