DISCOVER A NATURAL CONNECTION

Enjoy the natural beauty of British Columbia, a region known for its stunning scenery, spectacular wildlife and sustainability initiatives

As an unspoilt oasis of flourishing landscapes, British Columbia in Canada is home to diverse wildlife, including rare species such as the white Kermode bear. Though it doesn't have a large human population, those that do live here have a deep respect for nature and are constantly driving new sustainability initiatives that aim to help the region - and the planet - thrive.

It will come as no surprise, then, that this is where Greenpeace was founded (in Vancouver) more than 50 years ago, and this green mentality remains intrinsic to British Columbia today. It's the birthplace of many pioneering sustainable initiatives, such as seaplane operator Harbour Air's development of the ePlane and pledge to become the world's first all-electric airline.

The 203 Indigenous communities that live here also maintain a deep connection to the land, water and animals, and are keen to help visitors to do the same. By adopting a more responsible approach to tourism, you'll enjoy a more authentic experience while you're here, and be helping to safeguard all that is valuable to the people of British Columbia.
