Nestled on Howe Sound's sheltered shoreline, and bordered by the Straight of Georgia, Gibsons, British Columbia is a scenic seaside community just 10 miles (16 kilometres) as the eagles fly from Canada's third-largest city, Vancouver.

A place for you

In this unique setting, you'll experience the best of all worlds - a mild West Coast climate, breathtaking mountain-to-ocean scenery, and an affordable lifestyle.

There's plenty of friendly, small-town atmosphere, and just about every shop and service you need. Year-round, outdoor recreational activities abound on land and sea. And for a change of pace, Vancouver’s attractions are as close as a 40-minute scenic ferry journey or quick seaplane flight.

And your business

As well, you’ll find entrepreneurial opportunities, convenient connections to Vancouver and the world beyond – whether in person, or electronically, a full range of business services, and a diverse pool of talented and skilled people, who, like you, have chosen to live the Sunshine Coast lifestyle.

The possibilities are here

• tourism: arts, eco- and edu-tourism, retreats and meetings, bed & breakfasts. Gibsons is just 40 minutes … and a world away.
  
  
• service and retail, targetting both local and off-coast markets. With Internet, email, and other communications tools, it’s possible to live here and do business anywhere.
