Sometimes all we need is a quiet space where we can think and dream. Where is your local 'go to' place?

We love walking among the trees at Storey's Beach.

Meet Samantha, our new Marketing Assistant. She is super excited to be a part of our team and so are we. Samantha will be sharing her love for our community over the coming months.

Spring time is here and so are warmer days! It's time to beat those Spring-time-isolation blues and get outside! Enjoy some of the local trails like the Quatse loop and Estuary trail to sight some wildlife or grab an ice cream after dinner and walk the sea wall. Wandering your town is a great way to boost your immune system, get some exercise and lift your spirits.

Cheers to Spring showers and May flowers!

#throwbackthursday @visitporthardy

Bald eagles make their homes in forested areas near large bodies of water. This environment ensures good fishing and large trees for nesting. Port Hardy enjoys an abundance of these amazing birds.
