Known as the “Harbour City”, Nanaimo’s amazing coastal life is what makes us stand out from other harbour cities on the Island such as Victoria or Parksville. No matter where you are in town, you’ll be only just a few minutes away from snorkeling, scuba diving, kayaking, fishing, and boating.
Plenty of access to the ocean combined with our great central location, just a seaplane ride or ferry ride away from Vancouver, makes it easy to see why Nanaimo would make the list of top coastal towns in Canada!
