hour 45 minutes by car/ferry
Tucked in the southwestern corner of mainland BC, Vancouver is a
beautiful and vibrant city that satisfies every visitor’s whim.
"You've probably heard that we can ski within sight of downtown
Vancouver and be on the water catching a spring salmon, all in the space
of 30 minutes. It's true—as long as your skis have quick-release
bindings. Otherwise, it might take up to 45 minutes." -- Denny
Boyd, Vancouver-based columnist.
“In the past three years Vancouver was voted as one of the top ten
"best destinations" in the world by to the readers of Condé
Nast Traveler magazine.” -- www.tourismvancouver.com
"...that quintessence of Canada in its most amiable kind, the city
of Vancouver-whose reputation is nothing if not tolerant, whose
appearance is always seemly, whose temper is famously kind, and whose
stance between the mountains and the sea is a model of municipal
etiquette." -- Jan Morris, travel writer
Victoria

hour 20 minute drive
“Welcome to Victoria - the "City of Gardens".”
“This intimate, sophisticated seaside City is the vacation capital of
Canada and the premiere tourist spot in the Pacific Northwest. This area
is the sunniest spot in the province and the gentlest in the country in
terms of climate, environment, and lifestyle. The city's British
colonial heritage is still very much in evidence, but contemporary
Victoria has a distinctly Pacific northwest flavour. Today, Victoria is
best known as the capital city of British Columbia, and as a
world-renowned tourism destination. This one-time colonial outpost is
alive with cosmopolitan dining, superb shopping, a colourful nightlife
and a full complement of cultural offerings.” -- www.city.victoria.bc.ca
