This long sandy stretch of beach in Parksville is an ideal place to enjoy some downtime or an easy stroll/cycle. There is a flat, wooden boardwalk and easy access to the adjoining Community Park, a huge 39-acre space enjoyed by both residents and visitors.

Beachfest, Parksville’s premier summer festival, takes place just off the boardwalk. Master sculptors from all around the world come to Parksville to create extraordinary, larger-than-life sand sculptures.
