British Columbia
Don’t challenge British Columbia to a nature contest. We have an unfair advantage: this is where the Pacific Ocean is met by bustling city and towering forest; where soaring snow-capped mountains give way to picturesque valleys, and where lively urban life blends in beautifully with the nature that surrounds it.

On the shores of the Pacific Ocean, at the southern tip of Vancouver Island, you’ll find British Columbia’s capital city brimming with West Coast history. Grand yet intimate, Victoria is home to the ancient Indigenous culture of the Coast Salish People, North America’s second-oldest Chinatown and the famed Inner Harbour. Go whale watching, tour the stately architecture, stroll through the walkable downtown and experience traditional high tea and funky fish-and-chips shacks. Victoria’s vibrancy and natural beauty, captured long ago in Emily Carr’s paintings, continues to charm and inspire adventure.
