An island paradise, Vancouver Island is an incredible place to visit year-round, boasting picture-perfect forests, rugged beaches, and refreshing air. Our daily itinerary is crafted for your comfort, regardless of the weather.
Vancouver Island is a haven for nature lovers, especially those eager to stay active. Local highlights include incredible sea life, towering old-growth trees, wild beaches, and countless trails. It’s a must-visit travel destination! Recently, Vancouver Island was awarded the Matador Network’s Adventure Destination Award 2024, recognized over remarkable places like Antarctica, Scotland, and California.
With the warmest climates in Canada, the island is often referred to as the “Hawaii of Canada,” making it ideal for a beachside retreat focused on getting back in shape adventurously.

So… is this like a fat camp for adults?
Yes it is in the sense that you’re working everyday towards losing weight and getting back in shape. However, using the words ‘fat camp for adults’ is a pretty offensive and outdated term’. It was very much the 2000’s toxic diet culture to operate ‘fat farm weight loss camps’. We’re glad to have moved past the era of fat camps, and into the respectful terms that you see describing our program today.
