There are over a dozen Christmas activities and events happening this year, not to mention even more opportunity to shop for hand-made gifts from the Sunshine Coast’s talented roster of artists – many of which have studios based in Pender Harbour and will be at John Henry’s Resort & Marina for their Christmas market.

The Sunshine Coast Art Crawl is October 19-21, 2018 Over 3 days this festival transforms the entire coastal region into an interactive art show where 380 artists open up 165 galleries and studios to showcase their creations.

From the Sunshine Coast Mushroom Festival to the Sunshine Coast Art Crawl, autumn is is filled with fun activities, educational opportunities, and events that help you enjoy the very best of the season in this amazing region.

Adventures continue at Homfray Lodge! I spent most of the the day kayaking while John had some down time reading on the dock at this all inclusive resort along the remote waters of world-renown Desolation Sound.
