I have a special spot in my heart for this bar. Maybe it just takes me back to my university days. Not the best food or beer, but a cool, dark, moody atmosphere with candles and live music. Great for a rainy day.

They offer incredible whale watching tours on bigger, comfortable boats, or zodiacs for the more adventurous! I've been on two tours with them and saw huge schools of orcas/killer whales both times.

Parks & Nature

My favorite park in all of Victoria. Beautiful lawns, rock gardens, willow trees hanging over ponds, and endless rows of flowers. There is a petting zoo, playgrounds for kids, and multiple sports pitches. You could spend an entire day exploring this park! The perfect spot for a picnic.

This winding road will take you along Victoria's waterfront. There is a great seawall walk you can follow for miles, or there are stairs at many points leading to seemingly endless rocky beaches with unobstructed views of the Olympic mountains. I like to head here for a picnic on the beach.
