China Beach Provincial Park

If you drive out past Sooke and Jordan River, just after you climb the steep hill past Jordan River you will shortly come to China Beach. Be sure to go to the day use area, NOT the campground. The campground is for use by hikers of the Juan de Fuca trail. This is a great beach with white sand and towering cliffs. It has a good and very interesting trail down to the water. The trail takes about 15 minutes from the parking lot. This is one of the most popular beaches along the West Coast of Vancouver Island. Enjoy the video.

Mystic Beach and so it is!

<Drive out from Victoria past Sooke and Jordan River. Just after you climb up the hill from Jordan River you will get to China Beach. Do not go into the camp ground but rather the day use area. Here you will find a trail to China Beach and another to Mystic Beach. Mystic Beach is a 2 km hike but oh so worth the trip. It is the most beautiful and spectacular of all the beaches along this coast. It has a white sandy beach, a waterfall cascading off a high cliff, beautifully carved limestone cliffs of amazing colors, and much more. There is a campground at one end of the beach for use by those hiking the Juan de Fuca marine trail. Enjoy the video.
