Just a few minutes west of the Langdale ferry dock, past the tiny communities of Hopkins and Grantham Landing, Gibsons was founded more than a century ago. The oldest section of town is along the waterfront, with a cluster of shops.
Molly’s Reach Restaurant. Originally a set for the long-running and internationally popular The Beachcombers TV series, today it’s a real seafood restaurant. A seawall just below the restaurant makes for a nice water-side stroll.
Sunshine Coast Museum & Archives. "Experience the fascinating history of the Sunshine Coast and its people. Two floors of exhibits featuring local First Nations, Union Steamships, BC Ferries, CBC's TV series 'The Beachcombers,' pioneer period rooms, coastal logging, natural history and much more. Archives and photo collection available by appointment. Open Tuesdays to Saturdays, 10:30 to 4:30 - look for the mural!"
The Visitor InfoCentre is located right by the burial plot of the town’s founder George Gibson and his family and reminds us that the past is never very far away.
