 You’ve got to see it to believe it!

This is Canada’s South Pacific, with crashing waves and a spectacular rugged foreshore peninsula that juts into the Strait of Juan de Fuca. A south facing orientation guarantees sunrises and sunsets, winter and summer. Unparalleled 270 degree views from the town of Sooke, across the strait to the spectacular snow-capped Olympic Mountains, and wave-washed parkland foreshore as far as the eye can see.

Embrace the sea and sky from a multitude of vantage points. Surround yourself with abundant marine life along its rocky shores, and enjoy surf, spray and vistas forever. A sanctuary ‘away from it all’, yet so close to all the amenities and charm of Greater Victoria.
