Welcome to Ayjoomixw Powell River, the Pearl on the Sunshine Coast
Powell River is located on the coast of British Columbia approximately 145 kilometres 90 miles north of Vancouver, immediately across from Courtenay on Vancouver Island. To arrive in Powell River from Vancouver means a short ferry trip from Horseshoe Bay, a scenic 80 kilometre drive on the Sechelt Peninsula, then a second ferry trip to Saltery Bay, itself a short drive from the centre of Powell River. Alternately, visitors can travel from Comox-Courtenay across Georgia Strait by ferry, directly to downtown Powell River.
