The "Land Between Two Waters."
Named after the shíshálh, the first Indigenous peoples to inhabit the area, this bustling village has always valued community, culture, and connection.
With a population of only over 10,000 residents, Sechelt will inspire you to live life the way you’ve always planned. It’s rich in artistic history and home to the Sunshine Coast Festival Of The Written Arts – Canada’s longest-running summer gathering of Canadian writers and readers. From Cowrie Street’s quaint shops to the sandbars of Davis Bay, our community welcomes you to your new home.
