The golf course is a great spot to grab a drink or just play a round of golf. There's an excellent walking trail that surrounds the perimeter of the course.

As an avid bread enthusiast, this place is par none. Just the best bakery I've been too with tons of ready-to-eat snacks. Great views of the harbor, with good parking. Gets busy on the weekends!

Foodie's might turn their noses up, but the Keg is a dependable and consistent location for a good ribeye (and maybe a scotch or two). We like this location because it's a pleasant walk back and forth to our house.

EXCELLENT Vegan restaurant. As a non-vegan, I'm consistently surprised by how good the food is here. A great spot if you have someone in your group that wants Vegan food.

Such a cool garden with an amazing story. Not as touristy as Butchart Gardens, and a great spot to have a tea.

There is no ridesharing as of yet.
Current Taxi is a local taxi company that uses exclusively Tesla's. Not much more expensive than a regular taxi and the app works well!

The Saturday Moss Street Farmer's Market is Great!
A great farmers market, does not run through the winter though.

Victoria is sneaky cold sometimes
It feels colder than the temperature here because of the humidity. Bring some layers in the cooler months!

It's a local alcoholic coffee cocktail. It's better than it sounds, but don't make plans around it. Just a fun thing to try!

Public Transit is Decent, but check routes first
Depending on where you need to be, public transit can be a good way to get around. There's only bus, no municipal rail or anything.
