Welcome to the Vancouver Island Region!Welcome to Canada's far west (read: best) coast. Paddle through serene coastal waters. Backpack in majestic wilderness parks. Marvel at the furred, feathered and finned wildlife on land and out to sea. Gaze at distant snow-capped mountains while striding barefoot along softly curving beaches. Bomb down mountain bike trails, surf the big waves and swim with the salmon. Inhale crisp, clean ocean breezes and the mossy fragrance of old-growth rainforests.And once you've had your day's fill of nature, shop, dine, wine, educate and amuse yourself in cosmopolitan centres, small towns and snug harbours. Paradise for travellers seeking authentic, no hassle, go-anywhere adventures both outdoors and in supreme indoor comfort has a new name: Vancouver Island.Victoria in the southwest to Cape Scott's windswept beaches and rugged headlands at its northern tip.
