The Vancouver 2010 Olympics is an opportunity not only to showcase our beautiful City of Vancouver and the village of Whistler, but also the rest of this magnificent province of British Columbia in Canada.  Some of the most spectacular scenery in British Columbia is on the Sunshine Coast, conveniently located between Vancouver and Whistler.

The Sunshine Coast is:
  • a 40-minute ferry ride from West Vancouver to Gibsons
  • 10 miles from downtown Vancouver as the crow flies
  • only 1-1/2 hours driving time from Whistler and the rest of the 2010 Olympic venues
  • .
If you choose the ride on BC Ferries from Horseshoe Bay (West Vancouver) to Langdale (Gibsons) you will be treated to some of the most spectacular ocean and mountain vistas you will ever experience ...... what a perfect introduction to our stunning Sunshine Coast.  The hustle and excitement of the Vancouver 2010 Olympic games will be in direct contrast to the peaceful ambiance of the Sunshine Coast.  And there will be an 11:00 pm sailing each evening during the Olympics to make it easier for you to travel back and forth to the games.


The Sunshine Coast Bed & Breakfast, Cottage Owners Association offers beautiful yet affordable 2010 accommodations for every taste; whether it is a stunning B&B on the waterfront or a cozy cottage in the woods, our Sunshine Coast accommodations are sure to please.  Our Association has stringent standards assuring our Vancouver 2010 Olympic guests of superb accommodations at affordable prices.

Entertainment on the Sunshine Coast
Imagine spending the day on the edge of your seat in Whistler or Vancouver, cheering for your country's athletes and enjoying the invigorating 2010 Olympic atmosphere, then in the evening returning to the Sunshine Coast to the peaceful relaxation of your own beautiful and cozy B&B or cottage in one of our scenic and individually unique communities.  You could go to dinner in one of our many excellent restaurants or pubs, then perhaps enjoy a local play or a performance by one of our many talented local musicians.  The Sunshine Coast is a hot spot for artists and artisans!  Or perhaps you just want to take in a movie in the quiet darkness in a good old fashioned movie theatre.




Or maybe you haven't had enough sports quite yet, and would like to attend a hockey game at one of our ice arenas, or a curling game between some local enthusiasts.  You might like to rent some ice skates, and try your hand at some of the figure skating moves you have witnessed at the Olympic Games, or spend an afternoon in the snowy back country enjoying cross country skiing at Dakota Ridge among snow-laden trees, enjoying amazing ocean and mountain vistas along the way.  Or you may prefer to go for an energizing swim at Sechelt's delightful new indoor waterpark.  There is no end to the choices!

After your dinner or your day of exploring, you return to your beautiful accommodations thinking of the wonderful breakfast you are going to experience the next morning, maybe ending your evening with a soothing soak in a hot tub.  And perhaps you have scheduled some down time, and are looking forward to enjoying a soothing massage the next day, either in your room or at one of our many excellent spas.  

Maybe you are planning to take a day and browse the local shops and galleries to find those unique and one-of-a-kind gifts to take home for a friend or your family.  That painting of the beach or marina by your B&B or cottage, or a piece of fantastic pottery in colours such as you have never seen before, or an exceptional piece of blown glass that you simply can't resist, purchased directly from the glassblower.

The quaint shops are full of wonderful and unique clothing, and you find something so perfect that you must have it --- an amazing Canadian wool sweater or a fantastic winter coat.  Or a piece of jewellry created right here on the Sunshine Coast, and each time you wear it you will remember this special time long after you have returned to your own home to share your 2010 Olympic Games experience with your friends.

So close to the 2010 Olympic venues, but so far from the hustle and bustle of the Olympic Games.  A place to rejuvenate and relax; a place to remember fondly for many years to come because of its unique nature and warm hospitality.  Another 2010 Olympic memory, far from the Games.........
