Welcome to Campbell River

Campbell River hugs the shoreline of Discovery Passage, and has miles and miles of ocean front. Ocean views are abundant, and are the pride of the community. There is a great selection of resorts, hotels, motels, cottages, and B&Bs that all offer stunning vistas of the passage and islands beyond.

Accommodations can be chosen by a number of methods, including activity-type and season. Campbell River is known as the Salmon Capital of the World and boasts world-renowned fishing resorts only open for the summer season. During the winter, some people chose their accommodations for their storm-watching locations. Most accommodation providers are well connected with adventure-providers and offer their services to help guests maximize their vacations.

For those wanting to wake up to the sounds of nature, there is an abundance of camping opportunities. From cozy lakeside tent sites, to full-service RV sites on the beach, the biggest decision you'll make is what view to choose.

Vacationers flock to Campbell for the stunning ocean views, island hopping excursions, and the endless list of activities to be enjoyed. The accommodations found in and around the community are as diverse as the experiences being offered.
