Welcome to Camp Byng!
Camp Byng is located in Roberts Creek on the Sunshine Coast just north of Gibsons, BC. With 1200 metres of ocean foreshore, Camp Byng is the premier Scout property of the Pacific Coast Council and is in close proximity to a variety of local natural parks. There are three lodges available onsite, each with sleeping "hulls". Each lodge has a full commercial kitchen, large activity room, and some dormitory space.
The camp has wilderness areas for tenting and exploring, some with open-air style shelters. Camp Byng also has campfire sites, a spiritual centre, a nature trail, basketball court, parachutes and tug-o-war ropes.
Although the low ropes course and archery range are not yet available to book, we are very excited to have these programs up and running in the coming weeks!
Firewood included with all bookings; potable water provided onsite with access to campfire pits and kybos.
***Guests are required to bring their own jugs to fill up water****
