Off the Hook Bed and Breakfast

Last weekend Kris surprised me with a weekend getaway to the Sunshine Coast.

We were able to find a Bed & Breakfast last minute. We decided to go and explore an area so close to home, but one we’ve never visited before.
The ferry takes you from Horseshoe Bay to Langdale. It only takes 40 minutes, just enough time to get an “all aboard breakfast” on the ferry.

We drove along the Sunshine Coast, direction: Egmont. We were told to definitely hike up to the Skookumchuck Rapids. It’s about an hour hike on an easy trail. Really worth it. Go to Sechelt and visit one of the visitor centers to get a schedule of the best viewing times of the rapids.

After a sunny afternoon we decided to head back to Sechelt and check out our B&B and enjoy the hot tub.
Upon arriving in Off The Hook B&B we were welcomed by Dave (the owner) and Chloe his puppy.

Dave and Arlene will try their best to make your stay as pleasant as possible. With an incredible tasty breakfast and lots of recommendations you are ready to head out for the day. After a day of hiking, kayaking, snowshoeing or …. the hot tub will be ready for some relaxing. The view from the hot tub is phenomenal and breathtaking.

One thing’s for sure, our weekend was way too short, and we will definitely go back in the summer to visit Dave and Arlene!

    Hey Kris, Things are going pretty well at work, we finally moved to Gent and it's all suddenly more crowded (and noisy)! Everyone in the team's doing good, I see lots of babies popping around, it is almost scary ;) See you around and again nice photos! :)
