City on the Sunshine Coast
About Powell River
Powell River sits on the northern Sunshine Coast of southwestern British Columbia, with most residents living near the eastern shores of Malaspina Strait. Steep-sided fjords block a direct road link to Vancouver, creating a sense of remoteness despite the city's proximity to other populated areas. It also serves as the location for the head office of the qathet Regional District.
