Wood smoke drifting from the oven, a box balanced on your knees at the beach, that first slice after a long day on the trails. Everyone has a pizza place they swear by.
We’re putting together a reel on the most-loved pizza in Parksville Qualicum Beach, and we want the answers to come entirely from you. Locals, tell us your go-to. Visitors, tell us the spot you always come back to.
Drop your favourite in the comments, plus your order if you’re willing to share it. 🍕

The most fitting name of the week goes to Spook.

This great horned owl came to NIWRA with a wing injury that didn’t heal well enough for life in the wild.

Spook now has a permanent home at the centre where staff and volunteers care for injured and orphaned wildlife year-round.

ℹ️ Open daily from 9am to 4:30pm, 1240 Leffler Rd, Errington, BC.

🦉Want to help? Symbolic adoptions support Spook’s food, shelter and ongoing care: https://www.visitparksvillequalicumbeach.com/things-to-do/attractions/north-island-wildlife-recovery-centre/

Couples that cave together
Kendra Holyk and her partner couldn’t stop smiling after their trip underground with Horne Lake Caves. Interested? Pick from a number of tour options that let you explore the forest and caves of Horne Lake Caves Provincial Park.

Skydiving with friends
Michael Croteau recently documented his friends taking the leap with Skydive Vancouver Island. Operating out of Nanoose Bay, the experienced team specialise in tandem skydiving adventures. What a rush!

No matter how many times you’ve walked this path, the roar of Little Qualicum Falls is still a welcome surprise.

Just off Highway 4, where Cameron Lake spills into the Little Qualicum River over a series of rushing falls, Little Qualicum Falls Provincial Park was established in 1940 to protect the old-growth Douglas fir forest and riverbanks that surround it.

ℹ️ Filmed from a safe location along the designated trail. Get ready to explore the outdoors this autumn — visit BC AdventureSmart first.
