Rich with Culture and History

As the capital city of British Columbia, Victoria offers a distinct European flavour and is home to some of the finest scenery and recreational activities in the world. The second largest city on the Canadian West Coast, Victoria is also rich in maritime history and tradition.
Friendliest City in Canada

Named the friendliest city in the world by Condé Nast Traveler, Victoria is a city where government, the arts and advanced learning are central to daily life. Victoria is easily accessed by direct flight or a short ferry-ride from Vancouver, B.C. or Seattle, WA.
Mildest Climate in Canada

Our moderate year-round climate, with temperatures that seldom exceed 25 degrees celsius in summer and rarely dip below freezing in winter, ranks Victoria among the sunniest cities in Canada.
