Getting Here Campbell River
Campbell River is the gateway to the north-central Vancouver Island region. Travel information to that community is provided here.
The north-central island region is within easy reach of Vancouver and Victoria on the west coast of British Columbia, Canada. It's also accessible by regular air service from Seattle, USA, by Kenmore Air and Calgary etc through Westjet at the Comox Valley Airport.
Travelling by Land
Campbell River is approximately 1.5 hours (153 kilometres / 95 miles) drive north of Nanaimo on Highway 19, and 3 hours (264 kilometres / 165 miles) north of Victoria. See the most of Campbell River by exiting Highway 19 at the Miracle Beach exit, then continue north along Oceanside Route Highway 19A.
If you prefer a fully serviced highway route, follow the starfish along the scenic Oceanside Route, Highway 19A. Look for the official "starfish" signs south of Parksville and at other exits along Highway 19. Try both routes - north to Campbell River on the scenic Oceanside Route 19A, then home via the Inland Island Highway 19!
