Vancouver Island, nestled tightly along the lower south-western coast of British
Columbia, Canada, is rich in history and ripe with opportunities for outdoor
adventure. Roughly the size of Holland, Vancouver Island is home to the historic
capital city of Victoria. Famous for both its historic buildings, accommodations
and bustling inner harbour, no trip to the island is complete without visiting
this jewel.
The Vancouver Island region also encompasses the Gulf Islands. These diverse,
small islands are known for their rich artisan wares, wine and culinary
adventures and scenic outdoor activities. Vancouver Island is an exciting region
rich in First Nations history and culture, wine and agritourism, wildlife
watching and a plethora of outdoor activities including fishing, whale watching
and golf.
Whether you come for a short vacation, or plan on staying for the season, travel
to Vancouver Island and let the wilderness, culture and heritage of this dynamic
maritime region embrace you.
