Qualicum Beach · Canada
This little waterfront town on Vancouver Island's Salish Sea coast, Qualicum Beach sits at the foot of Mount Arrowsmith with a walkable central core of cafés and restaurants. The surrounding area includes provincial parks and warm beaches, and the town serves as an informal twin with neighbouring Parksville. Ferry access to Lasqueti Island and views toward the mountains add to its appeal as a summer destination.
