Parksville has fairly earned its reputation as one of the most beloved Vancouver Island travel destinations. Between sandy beaches, family attractions, and abundant outdoor recreation, there's plenty to fill a weekend itinerary without ever leaving town. And if you’re staying at The Beach Club Resort, you’re within reach of some of the area's lesser-known treasures.

There’s no denying that Tofino is one of Vancouver Island’s most iconic destinations. Rugged beaches, crashing waves, and unforgettable sunsets make it well worth the visit. But here’s a little secret locals already know: you don’t have to stay in Tofino to experience it!

Summer in Parksville has a distinct rhythm. Slow mornings by the water, afternoons that stretch into evening, and a steady lineup of welcoming community events. Staying at The Beach Club Resort puts you right in the middle of it all, within easy walking distance of the town’s biggest happenings and attractions.

There’s something extra special about celebrating Easter on the coast. The fresh ocean air, the sights and sounds of spring, and the perfect excuse to gather around a beautiful meal with the people you love. Each year, the Beach Club Resort brings it all together with a festive Easter Brunch Buffet that pairs incredible food with stunning beachfront views and family-friendly fun.

Whether you're sticking close to home and looking for fresh ideas or travelling to Vancouver Island searching for fun things to do during March break, Parksville is a lovely family destination this time of year.
