The Perfect Day Trip from Vancouver: Explore Beautiful Bowen Island

📍 The Perfect Day Trip from Vancouver: Explore Beautiful Bowen Island In this episode of Roaming with Hammo, I take you along on the ultimate day trip from Vancouver to the stunning Bowen Island. Just a short ferry ride from Horseshoe Bay, Bowen Island is packed with scenic hikes, cozy cafes, peaceful beaches, and local charm. ☀️ We hit up everything from brunch at the artsy Artisan Square, hiking to the epic viewpoint at Dorman Point, sipping local cider at Bowen Cider House, to relaxing by serene lakes and a classic stony beach. Oh — and did I mention the eagle sighting? If you're visiting Vancouver or just looking for a local adventure, this vlog will show you exactly how to spend one amazing day on Bowen Island — car or no car! 🚗 Getting There from Vancouver: Bowen Island is easily accessible via the Horseshoe Bay ferry terminal in West Vancouver. You can travel by foot (via the 257 Express Bus from downtown) or bring your car. No bookings needed—just turn up early, especially on summer weekends. 💡 Bowen Island Travel Tips: ✔️ Use an Experience Card to save on ferry costs ✔️ Parking is limited—arrive early at beaches & cafes ✔️ Artisan Square is just a short 10–15 min walk uphill from the ferry ✔️ Bring water, snacks, bug spray, and good walking shoes ✔️ Support the local businesses and artists—Bowen thrives on it 🌿 Why I Love Bowen Island: This island offers the perfect mix of natural beauty and small-town charm. Whether you're hiking, sipping cider, relaxing by a lake, or grabbing brunch with a view, Bowen Island gives you that “true BC summer” feeling just a short trip from the city. 📌 What’s in This Vlog: 🚢 Ferry from Horseshoe Bay 🥞 Brunch at Artisan Eats Café 🎨 Exploring colourful Artisan Square 🥾 Hiking to Dorman Point Lookout ☕️ Coffee at Tell Your Friends Café 🏖️ Chilling at Tunstall Bay Beach 🍎 Sipping cider at Bowen Cider House 🌲 Strolling around serene Killarney Lake 🍦 Ice cream in Snug Cove before heading back 🎒 Tips for Your Trip: Arrive early for parking & ferry Bring insect repellent for the beach Expect to pay around $25 for brunch Walk or drive – both options are doable Support local shops and producers! 📍 Location: Bowen Island, British Columbia 🎥 Shot in: July 2025 🎙️ Hosted by: James Hammond **🔔 Subscribe for more day trips, hikes, and travel guides around BC and beyond!
