Welcome to the Gateway of Fun

Once a sleepy logging town, Squamish has evolved into an epicenter of adventure in the past few decades and now offers some of the province’s best stand up paddleboarding experiences on both saltwater and fresh, as well as scenic rafting and kayaking opportunities. Located on the appropriately named Sea-to-sky Highway an hour away from the Vancouver International Airport, this community is easy to get to but hard to forget.
