Whatever way you travel to the conference in Qualicum Beach you are going to enjoy the journey. Coming from the mainland you can take the ferry and if you're lucky you'll get to see whales and dolphins. Flying is a great option. The views are spectacular and when you land at Qualicum Beach airport you are only a ten minute car ride from the convention site. Coming by car? The drive is gorgeous. Make sure you leave in plenty of time to take the scenic route!
