What’s up guys, welcome back to Dame Untamed. For those of you who are new here, my name is Nikki and this is my adventure channel. This video is taking you to some of the best spots to visit in BC in the SUMMER! Our Sea to Sky road trip of BC will surely making you want to visit if you haven't before. Our bestie adventure (part 1) begins In Vancouver, then heads off to North Vancouver, Squamish, Whistler & Pemberton! We cover a lot of ground so buckle up.
This weeks video showcases a recent visit from my best friend Lindsey ( / @lindsellecreates . Make sure to check out her channel!
After getting her in the car and our initial catch up, our first stop of the day was Kitsilano Beach. This is one of Vancouver's most popular beaches offering panoramic views of downtown Vancouver, Burrard Inlet, and the North Shore Mountains. A great place for a picnic, beach volleyball, basketball, paddle boarding, kite surfing, sailing and much more! A much see spot for anyone visiting the area.
If we had had a bit more time, I would have liked to stop at the Granville Island market on our way north. This is a popular indoor market with cafes, restaurants & bars, plus an assortment of gourmet food stalls & artisan boutiques. Unfortunately it wasn’t in the cards for us this time, but I highly recommend it for those visiting Vancouver and have the time for it!
After a relaxing picnic on the beach, we were off to our next destination. But first things first - we had to feed Lindsey, so we stopped for a juicy poutine as we were leaving Kitsilano.
So, we continued through downtown and decided that the west coast rainforest oasis that is Stanley Park would be our next stop. This 400 hectare urban park is located in the midst of Vancouvers city landscape and offers scenic views of water, mountains, sky and huge trees along the parks famous Seawall - everything that a tourist could want, and more. Stanley Park offers a range of unforgettable experiences for all, including the Vancouver Aquarium, beautiful beaches, local wildlife viewing, old growth forest, historical, natural and cultural landmarks, such as the First Nations totem poles, great eats and kilometres of nature trails.
It had been on my bucket list to visit “Prospect Point”. This popular viewpoint has been attracting visitors with its scenic views and rich history since 1888, when Stanley Park first opened. A great place to take in the beautiful views of the Lions Gate Bridge, watch the ships as they pass and grab an ice cream!
After visiting a few spots in Stanley Park, it was time to make our way to Squamish. And that meant, crossing the Lions Gate! Once safely across will all our limbs in tact, we stoped at Cypress Provincial Park for a panoramic view of the Greater Vancouver area.
After a quick last pit stop at The Pop Up Cypress Village to see what all the fuss was about, we were finally Squamish bound. We ordered pizza, and crashed for the night.
DAY 2
Day two began with a pit stop at Tim Horton’s (every road trip in Canada should start here!) following by a beautiful scenic drive to Pemberton. Our first stop of the day was Joffre Lakes Provincial Park. If you plan to visit this park between May & October of 2023, don’t forget to reserve your day pass online. Passed can be obtained at: bcparks.ca/reservations/day-u.... The Joffre Lakes are iconic alpine lakes and are definitely worth the visit. Once you’ve enjoyed the views from the lower lake, you’ve got quite a hike ahead of you if you’re looking to hit the upper lake. The full hike is approximately 10km out and back hike, with an elevation gain of 491m. It takes about 3-4 hours total, depending on hiking ability. Back in 2012, I hiked to the middle lake and it was spectacular! Well worth the hike up if you’ve got the time.
Next, we pit stopped at One Mile Lake on our way out of Pemberton to visit the dragonflies. This lake is a great spot to relax, have a picnic, swim or just take in the beautiful views. Next, we finally made it to Whistler. We walked around the village, shopped, and ate some delicious poutine at Zog’s Dogs. Our last stop was Brandywine Falls Provincial Park before heading home. For those of you who keep up with my channel, you’ll know I recently visited Brandywine Falls on a waterfall tour of Whistler. For those interested in checking out some of the other waterfalls Whistler has to offer, check out my recent upload showcasing a few of my favourites!
