The most magical 'Twilight' filming locations near Vancouver that'll transport you to Forks
The misty scenes and lush greenery of Forks takes a top spot on most Twihard's bucket lists, no doubt, especially in the fall when you probably (or definitely should) have the entire Twilight saga on at all times in the background.
Who doesn't love the season with a side of vampire drama and A Thousand Years by Christina Perri stuck in your head for the entirety of it?

While Twilight may have been set in the Washington State town of Forks, you can thank B.C. for much of its moody aesthetic.
Legendary scenes like Bella and Edwards's wedding, the culmination of the world's most divisive love triangle (Bella, Edward, and Jacob atop a mountain in Eclipse), and of course La Push beach, were all filmed in the Beautiful British Columbia or closeby.
If you want to go on the ultimate Twilight tour on your next visit to B.C. or just want to see where these iconic moments came to life, keep on reading.
La Push, baby!
La Push baby! It's La Push.
Eric Yorkie said it best, and we can't deny that the stunning beach is a must-visit on any Twilight filming locations tour.
It's just a road trip from Vancouver, about six hours away, and serves up Pacific Ocean views and jaw-dropping scenery. This spot is actually in La Push, WA, U.S.A., but worth that drive.
While living you're Twilight dreams, make sure to respect the signs there and Quileute Tribe's procedures for conduct.
La Push, in Canada
La Push actually switched locations later in the Twilight Saga, to a Canadian shoreline.
Later in the series, in New Moon, the beach that Jacob and Bella walk along is Long Beach in Pacific Rim National Park on Vancouver Island. You can recognize the iconic Incinerator Rock in the movie, making for a perfect fan-girl photo moment.
The convo that happened on this West Coast beach was a turning point in the series, when Jacob gets real about being a werewolf to Bella.
Squamish, B.C.
It's undeniable that many wedding fantasies and mood boards were created while watching the scene of Edward and Bella's woodland nuptials.
How could someone not fall in love with the fantasy-like decor? An outdoor ceiling of florals, an aisle of ferns, and a ceremony surrounded by old-growth trees. It was, and always will be, what Millennial wedding dreams are made of.
As it turns out, this scene was not in the Cullen family backyard, but set in Stawamus Chief Provincial Park.
Parthenon Park, West Vancouver
@ldrnewmoon One of my fav scenes oml #fyp #foryoupage #foryou #capcut #edit #viral #newmoon #bellaswan #bellaswanedit #newmoonedit #twilight #cliffdiving
Who could forget the New Moon movie, when all seemed hopeless and we were forced to watch months flick by on the screen?
According to movie-locations the scene when Bella goes cliff jumping in order to see a glimpse of Edward in her mind, and then Jacob saves her, is filmed at a beach in West Van.
It's not exactly a magical scene, but it's important nonetheless and the West Vancouver shoreline is stunning to visit.
Mount Seymour
Finally, the set of the epic love triangle confortation in Eclipse.
Depending on where your loyalties lie, this was either a gut-wrenching moment when Bella kissed Jacob or a celebration of their love (short-lived though, of course).
Well, according to Destination Vancouver, the camping scenes for this movie were actually filmed on Mount Seymour, so you can go for a hike and feel like you're right in the drama.
While these are some of the most memorable and magical settings for the saga, there are tones of filming locations both in Vancouver and a road trip away in the U.S.
Stanely Park is home to forest scenes in the movies, Jacob and Billy called Coquitlam home, and the newborn army emerged from the waters of Port Moody.
Just a visit to the West Coast will give you all the Twilight vibes you could ask for. Walk through the old-growth forests during the rainy fall season and you'll feel like a Cullen in no time.
