Reviewer: Barbara Richman	Regarding Suzanne's wish to view Texada Island and the Sunshine Coast area, she may want to try Big Wave Dave's webcams. There is a new camera at Columbia Beach that appears to face that direction. Entered: 3/14/2014 10:36:54 AM
Reviewer: Suzanne Cardoso	As a yearly visitor of Qualicum Beach, can u please consider having another camera facing east (Texada and sunshine coast area). I love looking at these cameras daily and can not wait to get back there again. Consider a panoramic camera, that would be awesome. Entered: 2/16/2014 12:45:32 PM

Reviewer: Blain - VisitParksvilleQualicumBeach.com	Webcam Update - Hi everyone. We think we've solved the updating issue with this camera. You should get current images of this spectacular beach from now on. Enjoy! Entered: 8/16/2011 10:05:46 AM
Reviewer: Trevor Brouilette	This is a good web cam for the locals, except its a day late. How can you plan a beach day with a low tide when the picture is in correct ?? Entered: 8/12/2011 5:58:45 PM
Reviewer: Jeanette Nadeau	I had the pleasure of spending 2 weeks in the last part of July at Qualicum. This is such a magical place and so good for the soul! I love it here. Entered: 8/12/2011 8:09:06 AM
Reviewer: Blain - VisitParksvilleQualicumBeach.com	Webcam Update - Thanks for the comment, Linda. Sorry, we experience issues with all our cameras from time to time. This new camera has been especially needy. Please know we work to resolve issues asap. Entered: 7/20/2011 4:47:29 PM
Reviewer: Linda Prud'homme	Love the new webcam; it's wonderful!! But, can it be adjusted to refresh more reliably. Often there is a significant time lag between the image and the real time. For example, right now it is July 20, 2011 at 10:48 am but the image on the webcam is from July 19, 6:16pm. Entered: 7/20/2011 10:48:50 AM
