Bowen Island is located on Howe Sound, 20 minutes west by ferry from the city of Vancouver, in southwestern British Columbia. Its rugged landscape, ocean and mountain views and laid-back lifestyle are typical of the forested islands to be found along BC’s coast. Primarily a residential community, Bowen Island offers residents a regular ferry service and easy commute to the city. With its lakes, beaches, crown forest lands and hiking trails, it is a popular day-trip destination for city-dwellers seeking a retreat from the bustle of urban life.
