Things to do
Beaver encounters in Halfmoon Bay
If you're in search of R&R, you've come to the right place. Halfmoon Bay swaps big-ticket attractions for a wonderland of rugged coastlines, sandy beaches and shimmering tide pools. Halfmoon Bay vacation rentals make the most of the setting, with beautiful waterfront cottages commanding sweeping views over the Salish Sea and Vancouver Island.

Activities
Beach hopping in Halfmoon Bay
In the summer, seaside lovers can take their pick from multiple beaches, each with its own unique charms. Fringed by a grassy foreshore, Coopers Green is a great place to swim, paddleboard or enjoy a farm-to-table inspired picnic. For a change of scene, head up the coast to Secret Cove. It's dotted with marinas that lure a constant stream of local pleasure crafts. If you want to jump aboard, sign up for a sailboat tour with one of the local operators.

Cozy winter retreats in Halfmoon Bay
As in most of Canada, summer is high season in Halfmoon Bay. The town hums with energy and the weather is ideal for outdoor pursuits. If you want to beat the summer rush, consider visiting in late spring or early fall. This is shoulder season and it's not unusual for seasonal residents to outnumber short-term vacationers. While Whistler and Vancouver tend to steal the spotlight, the Sunshine Coast is quickly emerging as a hotspot for winter vacations in British Columbia. Chilly nights are the perfect excuse for board games by the fireplace of your Halfmoon Bay vacation rental property.
