The Oyster River Potholes park on Vancouver Island is a hidden gem for nature lovers and photographers alike. With two locations to explore, the lower potholes offer cool swimming spots along the river, while the upper potholes provide a more secluded and picturesque setting. The crystal-clear water and unique rock formations make it a perfect spot for a morning adventure, whether you're looking to relax by the water or capture some stunning photos. Just be prepared for a bit of a rough road to get there, but the beauty of the potholes makes it all worth it!
