A brief visit to Sidney Spit on Saturday afternoon yielded a few photos and a sore back (after losing my footing on some driftwood).  Sidney Spit is part of the Gulf Islands National Park and is a great place to spend a few hours walking along the white sandy beach and through the wooded trails.  A large meadow is home to a large number of Fallow deer and a few campers too.  This area was once home to the Sidney Brick and Tile factory (1906 - 1915), evidence of which covers the beach.  For more information on the Gulf Islands National Park check out the Parks Canada website.
