"Coombs" Top 5 Page for this destination Province of British Columbia Off The Beaten Path Tip by madamx

Coombs is a small, quaint town not too far from Qualicum Beach and Nanaimo.

It is probably more well-known for it's quaint Old Country Market, where minature goats live on the roof. The market itself is a wonderful maze of gifts, gourmet foods and fresh produce. I found the prices extremely reasonable, and even if you don't buy, the browsing is fantastic.

Don't forget to visit the bakery where you can get hot, fresh cheese bread, and other yummy baked treats.

It's a fun way to spend the afternoon, and of course, you have to get a picture of the goats on the roof.
