Galiano Island is one of BC’s beautiful southern gulf islands. Located between Vancouver Island and the mainland, you can travel by ferry in just one hour to this little paradise! The island is popular for its provincial parks, beautiful beaches, and unique sandstone cliffs and caves. Galiano also has the highest percentage of artists per capita in the whole province, so the island has an amazing arts scene. We spent our visit exploring the parks, enjoying the beaches, and relaxing in some of our favourite accommodations we’ve ever stayed in.
Our home province of BC is very LGBTQ+ friendly, and it’s one of the reasons why we love exploring locally so much. The gulf islands are wonderfully progressive and very welcoming to our community, and we felt incredibly safe and comfortable on Galiano. We felt right at home and can definitely recommend it to other same-sex couples and LGBTQ+ travellers. Add it to your BC travel list!
