Bowen Island abounds with both maintained and backwoods trails, as well as narrow winding roads. Try a heart-pounding hike up Mount Gardner, the island's tallest peak, or relax picnicking and bird-watching in a casual walk around Killarney Lake set in a forest of cedar and hemlock trees.

You can bring your own bike or we have mountain bikes available for our guests.

How about a round of golf? The Bowen Island Golf Club offers nine holes with a par-35, 3,075-yard layout, plus lessons and boutique tournaments. Please visit Bowen Golf Course for more information.

Guests can rent a kayak and paddle around the calm waters of Bowen Island on a solo expedition or guided tour. Adventurous kayakers can head over to nearby Keats Island, Gambier Island, or the Pasley Island archipelago, where eagles, herons and deer can be seen.
