Gabriola Island

Gabriola is a short ferry ride from Nanaimo. Loop around the island, visit Folklife Village, the S’ul-hween X’pey Elder Cedar Forest and Silva Bay. Walk the trails at Drumbeg Park, and see the many rock carvings at Petroglyph Park. Mountain bikers can ride the flow trails in 707 Community Park, and ebikes are great for the north island’s parks and beaches. The Malaspina Galleries, sandstone rock formations carved by waves are a ‘must-see’.  Walk the beach at Gabriola Sands Provincial Park, head up to Orlebar and Berry Point for views of Entrance Island Lighthouse and stop for lunch at the Surf Lodge.
