Jug Island Beach in Belcarra Regional Park is a hidden gem just a short drive from Vancouver. The hike to the beach offers stunning views of Indian Arm and the chance to spot eagles and seals. The trail winds through moss-covered forests, climbs steep hills, and descends to the sandy beach where you can relax and take in the beauty of Jug Island. It's a great spot for a day trip, with on-leash dog-friendly trails and public toilets available. Just remember to watch out for aggressive parking enforcement in the area!
