Vancouver Coast & Mountains is a large tourism region that has four main areas:
Greater Vancouver. Check out our Vancouver section.
Sea to Sky Country, which includes Whistler, covers Horseshoe Bay to Lillooet. The terrain is so diverse you can start your trip by scuba diving at Porteau Cove Provincial Park and finish with skiing in Whistler. (Just don't give yourself the bends with the altitude change.)
The Sunshine Coast. Please review our Sunshine Coast section.
Mighty Fraser Country roughly follows the course of the Fraser River. 'Mighty' refers to the fact this river is 1399 km (869 mi.) long and at some points moves 760 million litres (200 million gallons) of water per minute. Considered to cover Abbotsford to Boston Bar, the Mighty Fraser geography is diverse, ranging from river delta farmland to snow-capped mountains.
