Holiday at China Beach, Juan de Fuca, Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada

China Beach, located along the Juan de Fuca Strait on the southwestern coast of Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada, is a beautiful and serene destination for a beach holiday. This picturesque beach offers a unique experience with its lush forests, rugged coastline and stunning views of the Olympic Mountains.

Beach Type

China Beach is characterized by its coarse golden sand interspersed with pebbles and rocky outcrops. While it may not have the powdery white sand found on some tropical beaches, its natural beauty more than makes up for it. The presence of rocks and nearby reefs make it an excellent spot for snorkeling and diving since these environments attract a wide variety of marine life.

  4. Wildlife Watching: Seals, sea lions, bald eagles and other coastal wildlife can often be spotted around China Beach.

  5. Beachcombing: The mixture of sand, pebbles and rocks make beachcombing an interesting activity here – you never know what treasures you might find!
