There are loads of things to do on your visit to Victoria. Our city is uniquely-located at the tip of an island, surrounded by ocean, mountains, lakes and forrests. In the city you can enjoy culture and urban delights. You can also access whale watching, fishing, kayaking, sailing and other ocean adventures. We even offer some of the world's best scuba diving with an number of wrecks to explore. The Saanich Peninsula and the Metchosin and Sooke areas feature a lovely rural lifestyle and setting to be enjoyed by residents and visitors alike. The rustic Gulf Islands lie within a short boat- or ferry-ride and reward visitors with beautiful rural settings and an abundance of art and crafts. Travel westward through Sooke and Jordan River to Port Renfrew to visit forrests and stunning ocean beaches. Bicycle form downtown Victoria to Sidney or along the Sooke River with its falls and potholes to Leechtown - an abandoned gold-mining town in the middle of the forrest where the Leech and Sooke Rivers and Wolfe Creek flow together into one. The nearby Cowichan Valley is a short drive over the stunning Malahat pass, boasting 5 or more vineyards and a cider works to visit and enjoy. You will also find many more arts and crafts in this vicinity. Follow the buttons below to help plan your itinerary. |
