George C. Reifel Migratory Bird Sanctuary

Situated upon 850 acres along the Fraser estuary at the mouth of the Fraser River, the George C. Reifel Migratory bird sanctuary is a must for birding enthusiasts. Easy hiking trails, bird blinds, and panoramic views await. See eagles, owls, hawks, falcons, waterfowl, songbirds, and the elusive Sandhill Crane.

We came back here two years later because we were unable to finish last time due to not having any hats or water. So we went to the sections we had not seen and had an amazing time. I like Bloedel I'm Vancouver but I feel that this one is slightly better as it is way more quiet and peaceful. There were tons of wild and exotic birds to see in their natural habitat and you get to feed them bird seed which they all love. I can't say enough about how much we really enjoyed our day trip here yesterday .

It's a beautiful beach even when the tide is out. It can get crowded during the summer but still a great experience.

Watershed Park

Reviewed By mezaco - Canada, null

Lovely forest with lots of trails. Always nice and quiet, never any crowds. You can access from 64th Ave at the north or 10th Avenue at the south. There are some wider trails, some very narrow forest trails and also a "meadow", a grassy field area witih some benches. It's not a place for a big family picnic, sweeping views or for a swim. It's a place to go if you want a quiet walk thorugh a beautiful old growth forest with huge Douglas Fir trees. Dogs will love it. Be aware: Some trails are steep. Also it's quite popular with mountain/BMX bikers so be aware. Some of the smaller trails wind around a bit confusingly.

Deas Island Regional Park

Reviewed By TreeFrogCreative - Ladner, Canada

My mom and I were looking for somewhere near by for an afternoon walk and decided to visit Deas Island Regional Park. We were pleased to find ample parking and excellent signage about the site and the trails. Several historic buildings have been moved to the site from parts of Delta. They've been restored and painted in attractive, coordinating colours. If you're a fan of Raymond Burr, Canadian-American actor primarily known for his title roles in the television dramas Perry Mason and Ironside, you'll be interested to know that the house on the site belonged to members of his family. My mom nursed one of the family for many years in the local extended care home and remembered many of her stories. There is a rowing club where you can sit and watch the rowers, lovely trails through cotton wood trees along the water, and picnic areas along the beach. I highly recommend the park for your next outing!

Burns Bog

Reviewed By C4424NJcathyb - Delta, Canada

I have walked this park's pathways with several friends, and, in an unusual way, it brought a sense of quietude to us, and we suspended talking Progress from creek side open pathways, to woodland raised paths amongst the tree in dappled shade, and moody forest colours and bog features. It is a natural wonder and to have access to it is a gift from the many volunteers who work to preserve it. Thank you!

We love coming here because my husband says they have the best biggest and most juicey blueberries ever. Their customer service is always great so we always try to come out at least once a year. Their ice cream or milkshakes are also delicious and always help to keep you cool on the drive home.

BC Ferries are the best forms of transport to get from the mainland to places on Vancouver Island and other smaller islands on the west coast of British Columbia. This time we did the sailing from Duke Point at Nanaimo to Tsawwassen which is south of Vancouver compared to Horseshoe Bay, which is north of Vancouver. This voyage is a bit longer than the Departure Bay to Horseshoe Bay trip and takes about two hours. We boarded the early morning sailing of the MV Queen of Alberni which is an old vessel of 1976 vintage and has been through quite a few mishaps. On board they have the ‘Coastal Café’ cafeteria which serves good burgers and sandwiches, a gift and souvenir shop, a video arcade, clean washrooms which can be accessed by the disabled as well, elevators and a lot of free tourist literature on deck. It can carry 295 cars and 1200 passengers and crew. Foot passengers do not need to book in advance and can simply walk on after buying the ticket at the terminal. Oversize luggage can be checked in before boarding with no extra charges. Vehicles generally have to be booked in advance and there is a long queue of cars waiting to board the ferry. Once on board we relaxed in the comfortable chairs on the upper level deck and enjoyed the views from the broad glass windows. One can go up to the sun deck for better views and the cold breeze in your hair, and one can take better pictures from there. Refreshments are readily available on the ferries, and the regular passengers would rush to queue up for the tasty meals on board. One can buy a hot meal as listed on the menu or simply go for the snacks like burgers, sandwiches, pastries or chips in the racks. Cold drinks, tea and coffee are available on tap. Washrooms are clean and well stocked with liquid soap, tissue and napkins. There are some work stations, a video arcade, kids playroom, gift and souvenir shop and racks from where you can pick up free tourist literature.
