THE BOARDWALK RESTAURANT, Lund, BC, Canada
HOW TO GET
HERE
Lund is a small fishing village located at the
north end of Highway 101. Also known
as the Pacific Coastal Highway and is the longest coastal highway in the
world stretching from Lund, in Canada, through the United States, then
Central America to Chile where it ends in the village of Quellon, Porto
Monte, on the South American Coast.
Traveling to Lund can be a stunning
experience if you have the time to explore the magnificent Canadian coast and
love beautiful scenery.
Whilst Lund
is only some 130 km north from Vancouver,
the trip by car takes several hours as there are two ferry trips to
experience which is an adventure in itself.
They provide some of the most amazing views of the mountains, waterfalls,
and pine forests which stretch from the water’s edge to the mountain tops.
Your drive however will be continually interrupted as you stop to pull out
your camera along the way to capture the unbelievable sights.
Large vehicle and passenger ferries leave regularly from Horseshoe Bay,
North Vancouver (www.bcferries.com) and there is a daily
bus service from Vancouver to Powell River provided by Malaspina Coaches (www.malaspinacoach.com).
Alternatively Pacific
Coastal Air (www.bcadventure.com/pacificcoastal)
flies to Powell River several times a day with this flight
providing a breathtaking view of Vancouver Island and the Malaspina Peninsula
during the 25 minute trip.
The drive from Powell
River to Lund takes just 25 minutes, and when you
arrive you are at the gateway to Desolation Sound, which boasts some of the
best scuba diving conditions in the world not to mention the wildlife and
marine life which draw thousands of tourists and fishermen annually.
So, come and join us for a meal on the deck and take the
opportunity to “Discover the Undiscovered at the End of the Road”.
