If you saw our post on the Sunshine Coast in B.C. Canada, you know it’s a peninsula full of outdoor activities and a good handful of vegan snackage! But let’s be honest: a few paragraphs of text and a couple of images aren’t always enough to convey a sense of place. So here’s a video we shot during our excursion with 9 must-see stops on the Sunshine Coast, Canada.
That includes hikes, vegan food, and (naturally) cupcakes. Because, you know, it’s us. So kick up your feet and enjoy the scenery!
1. The Gumboot Restaurant and Cafe – One of the only full-service restaurants with vegan options on the coast.
2. The Folly Artisan – Scratch-made vegan sweets and ice cream!
3. The Gumboot Cafe – Good food, cheap vegan eats, coffee and booze.
4. Cheeky Monkey Cakes – Vegan cupcakes so good you won’t be able to resist.
5. Sunshine Coast Olive Oil Co. – Free samples of *good* olive oil. Get the vegan “butter” flavored.
6. Up The Creek Backpackers B&B – The best place to stay with the best owner.
7. Roberts Creek Pier – Check out the artwork, repainted annually, in the park!
8. Cliff Gilker Park – A fave with the locals. And us!
9. Smuggler Cove Marine Park – A stunning hike with stellar views.
