Hike and enjoy Miracle Beach Provincial Park - there is a separate dog beach (very clean).

 If you are more of an endurance trekker then Strathcona Provincial Park will certainly satisfy you with trails lasting up to 7 days in duration.  This park is also home to North America's highest waterfall, the Della Falls (440 m)
