Get away from it all on British
Columbia's Salt Spring Island, one of the largest and most well-known of the
Pacific Gulf Islands.
Located just off the coast of Vancouver
Island between Victoria and
Nanaimo, Salt Spring Island is
situated only a short ferry ride from one of Canada's largest cities, Vancouver,
yet visitors to this island paradise feel as though they are worlds away from
the hustle of urban life, due in part to the island's lush vegetation and welcoming
atmosphere. While on the island, visitors can enjoy a picnic and a day out at
one of the many parks and beaches, including Ruckle
Provincial Park and Wallace
Island Marine Park. Boating, particularly kayaking, is the activity of choice
on the island, although there are also plenty of opportunities for cycling, golfing
and other outdoor activities. Salt Spring is known for its thriving arts community,
and the local talent can be checked out at galleries, markets and performance
venues throughout the island.
