Parksville is known for its sandy beaches and the warmest ocean waters in Canada. Tigh-Na-Mara is situated on three kilometers of sandy, tidal flat beach, meaning the tide goes out approximately one kilometer, leaving behind small pools that heat up in the sun. When the tide comes in, these pools mix with the cooler ocean and can be as warm as 75-80 degrees F or 25C.

Rent a bike for the afternoon and explore some of the breathtaking scenery of our area. Ride through Rathtrevor Provincial Park or through Top Bridge Trails and enjoy a swim in the river before heading back. Rentals are available by the hour, 1/2 day, and all day. We also have children's bikes and helmets.

Located right on site at Tigh-Na-Mara, now there is a new and Eco-friendly way to discover Vancouver Island. With our new electric and biofuel scooters you can buzz around and explore Parksville, Qualicum Beach, Coombs, and much more. Rates starting at $39 for two hours, including insurance and gas.
