Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
Salt Spring Island is one of the Gulf Islands between Vancouver Island and the BC mainland. It is a small robust community with lots to do indoors and outdoors. During the summer, there is a vibrant market on Saturdays, free outdoor concerts, a Studio Tour and summer musical and theatre performances. Outdoors there are numerous walking and hiking trails, parks and nature reserves, whale watching tours, lakes for swimming and ocean access for kayaks and boats. With three ferry terminals, it is just a ride away from Vancouver and Vancouver Island. (Access available by frequent ferry service and floatplanes.)
My own neighborhood is a 5 minute walk to the Pacific ocean.
