Columbia Beach — photo spot in Nanaimo, BC, Canada
Columbia Beach
Columbia Beach in Nanaimo offers rocky shorelines, driftwood, tidal pools and open views across the Georgia Strait — great for intimate coastal compositions and wide seascapes. Best at sunrise or golden hour for warm side-light and long shadows; stormy winter afternoons add dramatic waves. Accessible from the waterfront trail with limited street parking nearby; no entry fee. Low tide reveals interesting foreground textures; expect locals walking dogs and kayakers in summer.
