About April Point
Spend some time at an island oasis. Click for more photos. 
April Point Resort & Spa is a west coast oasis tucked into a protected cove on Quadra Island. The resorts rooms and cabins are nestled in the trees and each have beautiful oceanviews.
Guests spend time in the Aveda spa, explore Quadra Island on interpretive tours or get to know the area's spectacular residents on a wildlife tour.
Or, they simply sit back and let the stresses of the world slip away.
From Vancouver take the ferry to Nanaimo and take the Island Highway to Campbell River. (We recommend taking the Old Island Highway which hugs the scenic coast and takes you through the island's charming villages.) From Campbell River either take the free ten-minute water shuttle from Painter's Lodge or the ten-minute BC Ferry to Quadra Island.
