Description

Camp Byng is on the Sunshine Coast just north of Gibsons Landing. With 1200 metres of ocean foreshore, Camp Byng is the premier Scout property of the Pacific Coast Council. There are three lodges available, each with sleeping "hulls". Each lodge has a full commercial kitchen, large activity room, and some dormitory space. There is a recreation building with ping-pong, box hockey and foos-ball, and an outdoor basketball court. The camp has wilderness areas for tenting and exploring, some with open-air style shelters. Camp Byng also has campfire sites, a chapel, obstacle, and challenge courses, nature trail, and is in close proximity to many local natural parks.
