I nostri consigli su cosa non perdere in questa zona
You'll find attractions & activities galore minutes from home on the Saanich Peninsula and in downtown Victoria (about a 30 minute drive away). With the mildest climate in Canada, we live in one of our country’s top tourist areas. Hike, bike, golf, play tennis, sail or kayak year round, all within a 10-15 minute drive. Visit museums, gardens, wineries, breweries, a gin distillery, Legislative Buildings, galleries, etc. Go to the theatre, cinema or have afternoon tea at the Empress Hotel. Whale watch, fish or sail on our nearby waters or enjoy beautiful waterfront strolls.
The 29km Lochside Regional Trail which meanders from Victoria to Sidney through rolling farmlands, forests & along shorelines is easily accessed minutes from our home. This trail hooks up with the 55km Galloping Goose Trail stretching from Victoria to Sooke. More great hiking trails only minutes away are found in John Dean Provincial Park, Tod Inlet, etc.
Tell us what you’d like to see or do and we’ll do our best to help you find it!
