Texada, the largest island in Georgia Strait, is located between Vancouver Island  and the BC mainland, a short ferry ride from Powell River, on BC ‘s famed  Sunshine Coast. 

A little off the beaten track…

Texada’s location makes it the perfect getaway from the common tourist scene.  A thirty five-minute ferry ride from Powell River, Texada is one of the most accessible places on BC’s south coast that can still boast the character that comes with being off the beaten track.
