Bowen Island Day Trip

Step aboard the Bowen Island ferry and be taken to the charming Oceanside village of Snug Cove, surrounded by boats and tiny shops nestled this vibrant artistic community. An increasingly popular locale, Bowen Island offers a wide range of interesting activities to partake in ranging from artistic (with artisans selling pieces from paintings to pottery to chocolate), to delicious (with restaurants suiting every desire) and to active (the Island offers several parks and beaches with views of the Howe Sound). Here are some photos from our Saturday day trip to Bowen Island!

The Lower Mainland offers a wide range of places to explore, some only a short distance away such as Bowen Island. This little Island located a twenty-minute Ferry ride from the Horseshoe Bay Ferry Terminal is a haven for artists and writers. Visitors can climb aboard the Bowen Island ferry to enjoy little shops and eateries, explore the Island's Parks and hiking trails and overturn rocks to look for sea creatures along the Island's many beaches while enjoying spectacular views of Howe Sound, the mountains and the Pacific Ocean.
