BEACH INFO:

Davis Bay Beach is located approximately 3 km south of Sechelt. It is a long beach coastline that runs beside Sunshine Coast Hwy. The identifying feature of Davis Bay is the long pebbled beach coastline with a well developed paved walking path lined with viewing benches while highlighted with a long wooden fishing pier jutting out from the shoreline. Often the pier is occupied by fisherman and swimmers.

When the tide is low you can see tidal pools and sand bars. Otherwise, during high tide the beach is mainly rocky with sea shells.

AMENITIES:

It is an excellent place for swimming, windsurfing, skim boarding, kite surfing, and fishing at the pier or walking on the paved path. There are public parking spaces, benches, picnic tables and public washrooms and showers. Dogs are permitted only on leash.
