The Sunshine Coast
Powell River, a community of 20,000, is the closest major centre to Bella Terra Lodge. It is easily accessible from Vancouver, BC by scenic Highway 101. The five-hour trip includes two beautiful, short ferry rides. From Victoria, BC the journey is the same length with a one hour ferry trip from Comox to Powell River. The Sunshine Coast lays claim to the mildest climate in Canada with average summer high temperatures of 23C (80F) and 1400-1900 hours of sunshine. Zoom
