FLIGHT CLUB SECHELT, B.C.
Canadian Geographic|May/June 2021
Consumed by conversation, I don’t immediately notice we’ve taken a turn off the main highway and onto an unmarked dirt road.

FLIGHT CLUB SECHELT, B.C.

Normally this type of detour — in a van driven by a stranger with a storied past — would conjure up feelings of uneasiness, but there’s something alluring about the mystery that awaits us at the end of the road.

The riveting ride is part of the new Flights to Flights Ale & Air Tours, offered by B.C.’s Sunshine Coast Art Tours and Sunshine Coast Air, and with Douglas Bevans behind the wheel, the conversation is as charming as the unexpected spots along the way.

As he drives, Bevans shares stories of Sechelt, B.C., gateway to the province’s Sunshine Coast, as well as stories about the origins of the Coast Salish People. He sprinkles in anecdotes from his past as a member of a punk metal fusion band, to boot.
