It sounds like a cliché, but Whistler really does have something for everyone. It’s a premier family destination – with ample family-friendly accommodations, a world-class ski/snowboard school and varied terrain – as well as a top destination for young hardcore skiers and those traveling without kids. In the evening, the sheer variety of dining, drinking and dancing options means everyone will find something to do. There’s also a movie theatre for family entertainment, and in the high season some hotels host kids activities as well. In the summer, the resort boasts a multitude of activities including mountain biking, hiking, golf, tennis, horseback riding, kayaking and swimming in the lakes.
