  Shannon Falls
  Shannon Falls is located in Chief Stawamus Provincial Park. It is 335 meters high and is the third highest waterfall in the province. The waterfall is named after William Shannon, a brick manufacturer who settled here in the late 19th century. Compared with the turbulent waterfall, Shannon Falls is more gentle and charming. The water falls from the granite cliffs, flows into Howe Sound, and then into the Pacific Ocean.
  
  Sea to Sky Gondola
  Ascend the mountain by cable car and enjoy breathtaking views of the bay, majestic coastal forests, and surrounding mountains. Each cable car cabin accommodates up to eight passengers. The cabins are custom-made by a Swiss manufacturer, while the cable cars themselves are manufactured in Austria. The cable cars feature comfortable cushioned seats and floor-to-ceiling windows, allowing you to fully appreciate the magnificent scenery. The journey up and down the mountain is an exciting adventure for visitors of all ages, offering new views of Shannon Falls and the famous El Capitan climbing area along the way.
  
  Whistler
  Whistler is the perfect place full of amazing adventures and attractions. Over two million people visit Whistler annually! It is primarily known for its amazing skiing and snowboarding! However, in the summer, mountain biking at Whistler Blackcomb is very popular. During the 2010 Winter Olympics, Whistler hosted most of the alpine, Nordic, luge, skeleton, and bobsled events.
  
  Porteau Cove Provincial Park
  Porto Bay Provincial Park is a 56-hectare seaside paradise, ideal for those seeking a relaxing beach getaway. During the day, the park boasts driftwood beaches, intertidal zones and marine life, shipwrecks, artificial reefs, picnic areas, and pebble beaches, making it a great place to explore nature. You can climb the steps of the lookout tower for clear views of Anville Island and the Sunshine Coast.
