30"x20" map printed on premium satin photo paper

British Columbia has over 16,000 nautical miles of coastline and I guarantee that there is something for every waterperson. Love that urban vibe? Check out the 'bright lights, big city anchorages' around Vancouver and Victoria. Want to paddle? Your options are endless, catch a ferry up the coast and start from the ferry terminal. Like surfing? Good hunting, you won't hear a peep about spots from me. Do you thrive on farm markets? Great, nearly every town has one. Do you love floppy hats and good beats? Music festivals can be found up and down the coast. Wildlife? Everywhere. Beautiful landscapes? Everywhere. Adventure and/or chillin? Everywhere.

The map includes features that matter to a waterperson like the key lightstations and those places where character is built like Seymour and Cape Caution. The towns on the map are the ones that are a good stop for provisions. The compass rose is based off a marine chart. The scale is in nautical miles. You can see the Canada-US border.

Map Purpose

This map is for dreaming and story-telling and is not intended for navigation.
