Diane's Guidebook
Sightseeing
Great paths for a nature walk. Some of the paths are wide (fine crushed stone), easy walking for any age. Dogs can be off leash here. Lots of beauty and the fast flowing river is great to see, and in the summer you can go out for a swim. It's not deep but you have to watch some of the rocks can be slippery. There are stairs that go down to the water.

Nice scenic walk down to the ocean. The path zig zags down on a gentle slope with safety railing. About a 1 km walk total.

Goose Spit Park
60 Hawkins RdBeautiful views and nice place for a swim or picnic. The water is super clean because it comes from the glacier. It is the source for the drinking water for the valley. Plenty of walking paths also if you are in the mood for a hike or mountain biking.

Beautiful long sandy beach, especially when the tide is out.
