Bechin Hill Lifestyle
Newcastle Island, a secluded green area ideal for kayaking, biking, and exploring, is just across the water from downtown Nanaimo. Its rolling hills serve as a backdrop for each vantage point on Brechin Hill. The Brechin Hill Boat launch off Stewart Avenue serves as a jumping off point for explorations of the channel, islands, and the nearby Departure Bay.
Other community favourites include Beach Estates Park (which features a creek that runs down to the waterfront), Barney Moriez Park (loved by local kids for its large slides), and the sea wall, located on the southern edges. Brechin Hill residents are also close to the marina, and the pubs, coffee shops, and restaurants along the water.
