Vancouver Island

Home to British Columbia’s historic capital, ancient rainforests, and carefree surf towns, our sprawling island is dotted with eclectic communities begging to be explored.

The Island stretches for 460 kilometres, from the ornate capital of Victoria in the south to Cape Scott’s windswept beaches and rocky headlands at its northern tip. Along with the Gulf Islands, this rugged paradise combines old-growth forests, snow-capped mountains and untamed shorelines to create one of the planet’s most diverse ecosystems. Experience world-class whale watching, birding and fishing, or just let your worries drift away in the waves of the ocean. 

Vancouver Island offers you a wide range of urban, rural or remote communities. Whatever the lifestyle you are looking for, we have it here. Our cities are brimming with cultural events, festivals, shopping and restaurants as well as friendly towns with vibrant neighborhoods and world-class outdoor adventure.
