an island locale with a heartbeat This close community is bursting with life — in university lecture halls, around restaurant tables, in plazas where neighbours gather, and throughout nature’s wilds.
GREAT OUTDOORS People flock to live on the island because of its wild landscape. Reach the photographic coast in 10 minutes by bike or 5 by car. Hike the trails or stretch out on a sandy beach at Arbutus Cove, PKOLS (Mount Douglas Park) or Cordova Bay. Natural playgrounds are open through the seasons. HIGHER EDUCATION Riches for your mind await just up the road at the University of Victoria — that’s UVic to you. Make your lecture, study group or team practice by bike or bus in under 10 minutes.
HISTORIC DOWNTOWN Follow your curiosity to a city dripping with charm. Downtown Victoria is known for its local boutiques, eateries with personality, cobblestone streets and a pretty Inner Harbour. It’s cosmopolitan — in a warm, cozy and inspiring way. CULTURE & CONVENIENCE Uncover culture in nearby galleries and museums. Swap stories with your mates in favourite restaurants and cafés. And pick up groceries and other goods from the Shoppers Drug Mart and Save-on-Foods at University Heights.
