This month we will be meeting in the lower parking lot at 10:00am to walk the beach and many forest trails. There’s plenty of wildlife, birds and scenery to photograph.

Float Fairies – Keep your eyes open while on the beach or while beach combing  for the glass balls. Over the eight-month period, “float fairies” will be hiding these glass floats along the coast for people to find and keep. Some of the floats will be starred and can be taken to the Parksville Visitor’s Centre to win prizes donated by local merchants. Those without a star can still take their floats to the centre to enter a prize draw.

Rathtrevor Beach Provincial Park is located 3 km south of Parksville on Hwy 19a, on central Vancouver Island. Take exit #51 from the Inland Island Highway (Hwy #19) and follow signs to the park. The closest communities are Parksville, Qualicum and Nanaimo.
