Welcome to Canada. It's a huge place to explore so we've put together a selection of some “off--the-beaten-path” destinations. Whether you're looking for a nature experience in one of the many breathtaking national parks, or ocean-based activities or a dose of history and culture, look no further. Best of all, these destinations offer inexpensive hostel, hotel or guesthouse accommodation.
Penticton, British Columbia
Located in the Okanagan Valley, about 5 hours from Vancouver, and famous for hot, sunny weather, beautiful lakes and mountains, and festivals.
Powell River, British Columbia
Located on the Sunshine Coast of mainland BC, where the mountains, lakes and oceans meet, this vibrant coastal town is 88 miles or about 5 hours north of Vancouver via car and two ferries or a 1.5 hour ferry ride from Vancouver Island.
