Langdale is a small community on the Sunshine Coast of southern British Columbia, Canada. It is set in a verdant environment characteristic of many small BC communities. It plays host to a ferry terminal (also called Langdale) which serves as the point of entry for most vehicles entering the Sunshine Coast region.
Langdale is a small residential community and has no significant industry other than the ferry terminal.
It is also the location of school district 46's Langdale Elementary School, where the legendary teacher Gord Stevens formerly taught.
Located north of Langdale is the small community of Williamson's Landing. It was here that the "goose scarer" coyote and "away with geese" flashing light were recently introduced, in an unsuccessful attempt to deter unwanted geese from nesting on Bax and Boom's lawn.
Its main feature is the BC Ferries terminal that links the Sunshine Coast to Vancouver via Horseshoe Bay, with connecting foot-passenger service to Keats Island and Gambier Island. There is only a single berth in Langdale.
British Columbia Highway 101 is connected to this terminal.
