Discover the unique beauty of BC’s metropolitan area encased by nature.
The Vancouver, Coast & Mountains region is located in the south western corner of BC, connecting to the USA to the south, and Vancouver Island to the west. Lining the edge of the west coast is the Sunshine Coast – a stretch of secluded coastline accessible only by ferry. To the east is Mighty Fraser Country – with the Fraser River winding through the region’s cities. The region is home to two of BC’s most visited tourist destinations: Vancouver, and the scenic Sea to Sky Corridor up to Whistler. The Vancouver, Coast & Mountains region is a metropolitan area encased by nature.
