histler insiders know that May is a unique time here, a
time when possibilities multiply as the days grow longer.
They know that it’s an extraordinary time when they can enjoy
everything they love over the course of a single day, at unbeatable
prices. Still, somehow, May remains Whistler’s best-kept secret.
DELICIOUS DINING SPECIALS In May, those in the know
make the most of Whistler’s outstanding dining scene, since
this is the month in which the Indulge in Whistler program sees

specials. Not only is there something for every palate on Whistler’s
May menus—from low-key pub food, to pull-out-all-the-stops,

the month of May. May’s long days provide plenty of daylight
hours to go from the slopes to the golf course (or from the spa
to patio meetups with the après ski gang, if that’s more your
speed). The Whistler Mountain Bike Park opens in May, too, and

beckon.
SPRING IN WHISTLER: WORTH WAITING FOR
Not only do May days stretch longer, but vacation dollars also
stretch further thanks to spring discounts on everything from
accommodation to golf. From shredding the slopes in the morning,

sunny patio in the late afternoon, to a spa visit before dinner, a day
in Whistler in May is full of all the things you love at a price your
accountant will love, too.

Whistler and Blackcomb’s peaks are still covered with
snow in May, while summer sports and culture are
breathing renewed life into the valley, lakes, and village.
