Bowen Island

Visiting Bowen Island has been on my to do list for quite some time now so I was really happy to be able to finally make this happen on the weekend. Not even the threat of rain could deter a Saturday afternoon hike. Bowen Island is a fifteen to twenty minute ferry ride away from Horseshoe Bay. Before we were even on the ferry, a couple of seals kept us entertained whilst we got ready to depart. The ferry journey was over so quickly, especially because of the distracting spectacular views. We took a leisurely hike around Killarney Lake, which was a pretty moderate one with some nice views along the way. The day was finished off with a welcome drink, some pub food and a couple more seals while we waited for the return ferry to the mainland. The rain never came and for that I was thankful because it allowed me to have the most enjoyable time possible in a new environment.
