British Columbia's Sunshine Coast has long been a refuge for people seeking to escape urban pressures. There are so many water vistas it could be one of Canada's Gulf Islands. It's actually part of the mainland, but because it's cut off by thrusting mountains, the easiest way to reach it is on the 40-minute car ferries that regularly depart from Horseshoe Bay, on Vancouver's north shore.
