Soar Over Newcastle Island
Soar over the jewel of Canada's West Coast, Newcastle Island. What's Up Vancouver Island's flying camera, 'Buzz' glides low along the shore and over the treetops of this stunning Island park in the off season. It's only a 10 minute boat ride from downtown Nanaimo's busy harbour, but it feels an eternity away. The voices of the people of its astounding history speak to you the moment you step ashore. Take a short ride above the island and see it as the eagles do. Then plan a visit. It will call you back again and again.
