You might try the Horseshoe Bay and Howe Sound area. It's beautiful--but then, so is all of the Vancouver area that I saw the one time I visited three years ago. A friend has a summer cabin on a private island in Howe Sound, and it was sheer perfection as far as I'm concerned. Seals, whales, gorgeous trees, fairy-tale-like islands rising from the mist, even small caverns. One of the prettiest places I've ever seen.
