San Josef Bay  by kwind

San Josef Bay

Back in June we went on a road trip to a magical place at the end of Vancouver Island called San Josef Bay. It's 3.5 hours away from my home and required a 1.5 hr drive on an active logging road followed by a 45 minute hike down to the beach. The journey was more than worth it! My parents came with us... we've all lived on this amazing island our whole lives and none of us had ever been.
It looks like a wonderful place Kim and lovely to have been at long last.

@summerfield Yes, 45 minute hike. I updated my comment - thanks for noticing. My 79 year old dad did it easily. The photo doesn't do the place justice. It was gorgeous!

This happens to most of us. We made trips to the other end of the world,leave our backyard un-visited. . The sand is beautifully white.

Such a huge expansion of sand with no twigs or rocks.

The sand looks fine and a lovely tropical colour -not tropical here but in your current weather pattern it would make this trip very much worth while. Is it north or south?
