Prehistoric Findings
Ancient rock carvings
Prehistoric Findings
Petroglyph Provincial Park is home to a collection of rock carvings dating back more than 1,000 years. Replicas of the carvings allow you to run your fingers along the patterns and even make a relief rubbing on paper for a unique souvenir.
Get Back to Nature
Also known by its original First Nations name Saysutshun, Newcastle Island is accessible only by boat. With cruises to British Columbia, a 10-minute ferry ride will sweep you away from the city and into the ancient woodland island park. Forest trails and waterfront views will refresh you with natural beauty, and a bistro in the center of the park will take care of any cravings generated during your hike.
Local Cuisine
Nanaimo lends its name to the infamous Nanaimo bar — a sweet, gooey, chocolatey sensation made of layers of chocolate crumb wafer, custard and chocolate ganache. Variants include additional flavors such a mocha and mint. Fresh-caught seafood turns up in a variety of styles, from traditional fish and chips to surprisingly fresh sushi — Japan is just on the other side of the ocean, after all. Head to the Old Town for that indulgent Canadian specialty poutine, french fries topped with cheese curds and gravy.
Shopping
Downtown Nanaimo offers an array of shopping opportunities. Head to Woodgrove Centre for name-brand fashions. Stroll along the waterfront and pop into the many boutiques — signature items include First Nations-style artisan woodwork and even custom-made rowboats. The center of Nanaimo's downtown in home to the Arts District. There, you'll find galleries and studios where artists create and sell works of traditional and contemporary art.
