Deep Bay
✨ Hidden gem
Deep Bay sits on the east coast of Vancouver Island, tucked along Highway 19A north of Qualicum Beach — a quiet, sheltered spot where you drop the hook and settle into some genuinely peaceful BC coastal scenery. It's well known among fishing enthusiasts for chinook salmon runs, with fish regularly hitting the 20-pound mark, so if you have gear on board, this is a great place to use it.
