The communities of the Southern Sunshine Coast sit on the traditional territories of the shíshálh and Skwxwú7mesh nations and sprawl from Langdale to Egmont. Each has its own unique culture and characteristics, while all are tied to the natural environment and thrive with the residents and businesses who call them home.

The major towns and areas of the Southern Sunshine Coast include The Town of Gibsons, District of Sechelt, Sechelt Indian Government District, and the Sunshine Coast Regional District which includes the communities of Langdale, Elphinstone, Roberts Creek, Halfmoon Bay, and Pender Harbour.
