AUTUMN IN NANOOSE BAY










Nanoose Bay is situated between Parksville and Nanaimo on the Strait of Georgia. A community that we have always just passed by became a destination for two nights of R&R where we explored four local beachfront parks. Trails through the woods and up over rocky bluffs took us amongst the unique Arbutus trees with their twisted limbs dressed in peeling red bark. The Arbutus tree is Canada's only native broadleaf evergreen tree found on Southern Vancouver Island.

Enjoying nature and a good book in a great get away is so rejuvenating. Arbutus trees are amazing.
