An eight-hectare parkallowing you to explore the area as much as the whole city of
Nanaimo. You may think it is pretty exaggerating, but once you step into this fantastic scenic park, you will approve what has been claimed now. The excellent beach Piper’s Lagoon Park features, is one of a kind and is one the best places in Nanaimo you can go
beachcombing all year round and let your kites dance in the wind. This earthly heaven allows you to experience the incredible
fishing events right by the shores of
Georgia Strait. Imagine, right when you have thrown the bait into the water and waiting for some fish to fall for it and bite, a whale would breach out and roar miles away in the water. How wonderful it feels? Although whales are not close to being seen from the shore, they can be spotted by quality binoculars.
It has been reported that in some places of the beach, you can see
black-tailed deer walking, drinking, eating, and even mating in the meadows. If you are interested, take the necessary equipment and opt for an amazing
black-tailed deer hunting on Vancouver Island. Pay attention that if you’re coming to the park to hunt, black-tailed deer harvest is only available during the open season based on
hunting regulation by
BC Government.
Among all the wildlife, you can find and watch in abundance the various birdlife inhabiting the area. The size of the lagoon itself is equal to the size of three football fields together. It fills to the rim during high tide and empties almost entirely during the low tides. Consequently, a nutritious muck will remain after the water goes down that attracts different kinds of birdlife. Although birds are plentiful in the park, you cannot find their nest and see their chick, or maybe you would head to the places where no bird flies. That is why an experienced wildlife watching guiding team can be a big hand to make your wildlife viewing in Piper’s Lagoon Park memorable.
