About the Area
Victoria is the capital city of British Columbia and is located on Vancouver Island. Victoria boasts many historic buildings and some fascinating museums featuring the history of Western Canada. The city benefits from one of Canada's mildest climates, which allows its residents to pursue outdoor pleasures all year round.
Vancouver Island has one of the world's most diverse ecosystems: rainforests, marshes, meadows, beaches, mountains, oceans, rivers, and lakes, create habitats for multitudes of wildlife species. In fact, the region is one of the world's premier locations for golf, whale watching, scuba diving, birding, as well as salmon and trout fishing.
The beauty and tranquility of this region has long been a draw for artists and artisans. Galleries, studios and shops selling unique, locally produced arts and crafts are found in many population centres, particularly on the Gulf Islands.
