Nanaimo and related destinations

Kayak through sheltered bays where seals and orcas make surprise appearances along the rugged coastline. The Harbour City's Old City Quarter charms with boutiques and cafes housed in heritage buildings worth an afternoon's exploration. Sample plump local oysters paired with island-brewed craft beers at waterfront pubs where servers point out passing ferries by name. Protection Island and Newcastle Island Marine Provincial Park offer peaceful escapes just offshore. The Nanaimo Museum reveals the city's evolution from coal mining hub to tourist haven. Don't leave without trying the city's namesake dessert - a Nanaimo Bar - which locals will insist tastes better here than anywhere else on earth.
