“Widely-known, commonly-visited waterfall” doesn’t get clicks I guess

I visited Mystic Beach for the first time in 1975 and remember it was quite a hike to reach it- no longer?

Strathcona Park >>> Juan de Fuca, you can't just throw a statement out there like that without some kind of bracket.

quietvoice.bsky.social•11 days ago

That was my thought, too. I had to double-check because hey, I was pretty sure Mystic Beach isn’t in Strathcona Park. Maybe this means Strathcona Park is a hidden gem?

Most Famous Provincial Park on the Island? You might consider Strathcona a hidden gem, but the rest of us know better.

Last week I saw one "hidden gems of new west" and it literally the most famous cafe over there

You know what’s great about Mystic Beach?

That it’s not hidden. That we’ve protected parts of nature so close to us that feel removed and magical and yet are still accessible for all British Columbians to enjoy.

YOU MISSED THE ENTIRE POINT BECAUSE YOU AREN’T INTERESTED IN LOCAL PEOPLE

Haha ya! So hidden it's marked clearly on Google Maps for everyone to see 😅 . But the influencers need those clicks...

Tofino gets this same treatment and it's so ridiculous

Maybe back in the 90s when the Beaches store was a shack in a field for boogie board rentals but hidden gem no more

Recently, some travel magazine thing wrote that where I live, Duncan, is a hidden gem with cute Victorian charm and I nearly died from the WTF IT IS NOT

for every aspiring influencer who cares about their local community and wants to highlight the reality of it, there are ten other people doing Hidden Gem Cozy Hideaway pablum because it sells better to an algorithmic global audience and that’s what they’ve been trained to value

anyways happy friday
