A great summer spot

Powell river is a really great place to get away from it all. For me a nice peacefull place away from vancouver. Most people don't make it up the sunsine coast this far, but if you ever do you will know why i like this place so much. Me and my family would always travel here when i was young becuase we had knew people that lived up here. So every summer we traveled up here. Summer is the best time to visit by far. come up any other time and it will just be raining. It's on the edge of the rain forest. So in winter it will rain for months straight just like vancouver.

Pros and Cons

Pros:Really nice people, lots of fun
Cons:hard to get to
In a nutshell:a good place to play in the sun

Hi, Williams beach is actually Willingdon Beach & the white sand actually goes from here to Hawaii. There is another island south of here which is the biggest supplier of sand to Hawaii. Not much sand in Hawaii because they are volcanic islands. Bubba
