YELLOW POINT/CEDAR
T
The rural coastal
area of Yellow Point is located in the tranquil and picturesque
countryside just north of Ladysmith on a broad forested
peninsula complete with rural rolling landscapes. The area takes
its name from the brilliant yellow flowers of the Stonecrop
plant which still grows in profusion along the rocky shorelines
in the area.
Yellow Point provides all the pleasures of country living
combined with a wide array of craft shops, studios and cottage
industries. There are many shops and galleries where you can
enjoy latest creations of many of the well known artists and
artisans that live in this area. Products range from paintings,
carved metal works, stained glass, pottery, paper mache and
linens.
The area has an excellent and well deserved reputation for its
small resorts, and bed and breakfasts with beautiful views
facing the Gulf Islands of DeCourcy, Ruxton, Pylades, Valdes and
Thetis. While driving, walking or biking the beautiful loop
drive along the Yellow Point Road, you can savour the ocean
views, the rivers and small lakes, the farmers fields and the
interesting sandstone rock outcroppings along the shoreline
unique to Yellow Point.
There is no doubt that a leisurely trip through the forests and
farmland of Yellow Point makes for a very pleasant break.
Excellent picnic spots include Yellow Point Park with its
picturesque and rustic trails and Blue Heron Park, a beach park
with picnic tables, good beach access and swimming. There are
many pastimes to be enjoyed at Yellow Point, a quiet and serene
little haven.
