Petite escapade sur la Sunshine Coast

Aller sur la Sunshine Coast en provenance de Squamish ou de Vancouver, cela signifie conduire 30-40 minutes vers le quai Horseshoe Bay, prendre un traversier d'à peine de 35 minutes pour ensuite se sentir complètement ailleurs! En accostant à Gibson, on peut déjà respirer l'air du bord de mer, cela me rappelle la Gaspésie.

Je vous partage mon itinéraire d'un séjour relax et économique à profiter des sources d’eau, des promenades en nature et des petits commerces locaux.
