Go early, spend the day walking, browsing, and have lunch or snack at one of the local shops. Pick up local tourist magazine and try the local made Nanaimo bar in a coffee shop. Do not miss the Dollar-rama Store...great finds, but they do not accept debt cards or credit cards...cash only and change is in Canadian.

Loved taking a walk thru this small quiet quaint place. It was a lovely place.

You can very easily see this town in a day. There is a shuttle bus that does a circle with 4 well marked stops. Each stop is easily reached from any of the others. The waterfront is fun, with lots of little shops and food. The floating fish and chips restaurant was very good, as well as a little ice cream shop that makes their own ice cream with many flavors to choose from. We saw a cute little tea house on the waterfront that looked adorable, but we were full and didn't stop. Prices were reasonable.

Great shuttle system except there should have been more options. Multiple buses doing a circuit though a boring little town. There should have been some alternate routes to visit some of the outlying areas. Nanaimo was a nice but boring little town. Not much shopping evident. Walked all over and other than the old quarter, there was almost no opportunity to do any shopping. Several breweries. White Sails was good, but like most other places, did not open till 3PM. Not a lot of decent places to eat. The Lighthouse was nice but TINY. At least a 30 minute wait. This is an issue when you are on a limited time schedule. Like Disney, I don't want to spend a lot of time in lines.
