Very nice path to take me out of Courtenay.

There are a bunch of seaplanes and other small aircraft that are usually parked along the fence opposite the Riverway Path. You can check them out as you pass by.

This path takes you through Courtenay's urban area, partially sheltered on either side by strips of greenery, between downtown and the riverfront. You share the path with cyclists, but the trail is paved and divided to ease multi-use traffic.

Totem poles by the K’ómoks First Nation have been installed in Courtenay over the past decade to bring greater recognition to indigenous culture. This one overlooks the salt marsh and the banks of the Courtenay River.

Comox Harbour is a sheltered inlet on the east coast of Vancouver Island, opening into the Strait of Georgia. The water is generally calm, shaped by tides that expose mudflats and sandbars along the shoreline. Backed by distant mountains and coastal communities, it forms a wide, open marine landscape that changes noticeably throughout the day.
