About the Park
Notice: COVID-19 has impacted services in some parks. Please visit www.bcparks.ca to see which parks have been affected.
Situated on the scenic Strait of Juan de Fuca on the west coast of southern Vancouver Island, French Beach Provincial Park offers much more than just beautiful hiking trails through lush forests. A wide swatch of green lawn fronts this sand and pebble beach, where visitors can relax and enjoy a picnic or take a cool dip in the ocean. In addition to offering fabulous views of the Strait of Juan de Fuca and the Olympic Mountains, the 1,600-meter beach at this park is an ideal location for exploring and whale watching. The magnificent Gray whales pass by this park in the spring as they migrate to northern feeding grounds, and return again in the fall. Roaming pods of resident killer whales can also be seen offshore, as well as otters, seals and sea lions. French Beach is also a good spot to observe Bald eagles, ospreys and a variety of seabirds.

Oh how i’ve missed the beach!
Île de Ré has Atlantic waters so at first it was chilly but when we started body surfing everything warmed up fast!
The only challenge today was keeping a consistent layer of sunscreen on ☀️

Aujourd’hui, voilà une photo un peu différente de celles de d’habitude.
Cette image est issue d’un appareil photo jetable bon marché. Pour cette photo et sûrement certaines autres que je vous posterai, j’avais simplement envie de m’ôter le confort du matériel, et simplement photographier. Photographier en faisant l’effort d’avoir ce que l’on veut au premier coup d’œil.
