K is for Kayak

Come ply crystal clear waters, slide silently over drifting beds of giant kelp, paddle between islands where seals and seal lions play, explore hidden coves or glide past orcas. The meandering waterway of Victoria's Inner Harbour and the Gorge features an urban environment at first, then widens to Portage Inlet - a favourite of expert and novice kayakers alike. If you have never kayaked before, don't worry - it really is as easy as it looks.

L - is for Links

The lords of the links have blessed British Columbia like few places on earth. So, pack your bag and golf your way around all fore points of the compass in British Columbia. The courses are spectacular and the scenery absolutely awesome - from ocean's edge to mountain plateau. In fact, Golf Digest has rated Whistler one of the top 20 golf destinations in the world. NO wonder - with courses designed by Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, Robert Trent Jones Jr. and Rober Cupp, it is a golfer's paradise.

M - is for Mountains.

British Columbians love their mountains. From the majestic Rocky Mountains to the Coast Mountains, BCers like to climb them, ski them or just gaze in wonder at them. Fact is, we are completely surrounded by mountains - including the peaks in famous provincial parks like Bugaboo, Kokanee Glacier and Tweedsmuir. We even call two North Shore mountain peaks the Lions because we think they look like sleeping lions - and we named the Lions Gate Bridge after them.
