You cross the shimmering waters of the Strait of Juan de Fuca by hydrofoil and arrive in the Inner Harbour of Victoria, British Columbia, the capital of the province and home to one of the best universities in Canada.
According to Rudyard Kipling, “To realize Victoria you must take all that the eye admires in Bournemouth... the Isle of Wight and Happy Valley of Hong Kong, the Doon, Sorrento and Camps Bay, and add reminiscences on the Thousand Islands, and arrange the whole around the Bay of Naples, with some Himalayas for the background.”
Tourists rarely explore beyond a few downtown blocks, but the most stunning neighbourhoods of Victoria lie outside the Downtown along the sheltered bays and astonishing ocean bluffs of Oak Bay and the Saanich Peninsula. To cross the “Blue Bridge” and stroll along the seaside pedestrian walkway of Victoria West is to discover a new kind of upscale urban living: Small, low-rise condominiums with the most astonishing views imaginable. And then there are the amazing neighborhoods of Esquimalt, Colwood and Metchosin. No, if you're looking for a different way of life - a place that combines an old-fashioned, relaxed lifestyle with an upscale urban outlook - then Victoria is the place for you, to visit or to live.
