Denman Island, BC

Denman is a beautiful island 2.5 hours north of Victoria in the Georgia Strait. I enjoyed my time there and it was so relaxing!

I was given the room with the view (of the farm, ocean and mountains)!


We came across this crab on the beach with what looked like a slice of bread on its back although now that I've rotated the picture it looks more like a mushroom.


On my first night my friend cooked me two oysters they had collected off the beach - they were good!


This is one of my friend's kids suspended above one of the two private freshwater lakes on the island. A rope was tied way up in a tree so that you could climb up a hill with the end of the rope and swing out into the lake Tarzan-style. Um, I didn't try this....


We took an afternoon trip to Texada Island and on the way back saw this sea lion. It was the size of a grizzly bear...huge!
