鈥淏ook nerds, unite!鈥� it reads on the list. 鈥淭here is absolutely nothing cozier than a friendly bookshop filled to the brim with old tomes and brand new best-sellers.
鈥淎s it so happens, Sidney is known for their book scene, making it not only a cozy destination, but a most charming town, as well.鈥�
While Canmore, Alberta took the top spot, other Vancouver Island destinations to make the list included Campbell River, Courtenay, Parksville, Tofino and Ucluelet.
Campbell River (ranked 14) finished just behind Sidney.

Parksville was 23, Courtenay was 26, Tofino 32 and Ucluelet 39.
