Welcome To Vancouver Island!

We're located in the province of British Columbia (BC), on Canada's spectacular west coast. Bursting with natural beauty, the Island is the perfect British Columbia vacation destination.

Conde Nast Traveler 2005 Readers' Choice Awards has named Vancouver Island as one of the Top 12 Islands in the world!

Spectacular wilderness hiking. Glorious beach isolation. The best salmon fishing British Columbia offers. This is the place to find it all!

We're Your Best Island Travel Guides... Because We Live Here!

We're Susan and Graeme...longtime residents of the Island. We've lived here for over 13 years - exploring some amazing places - and we're still enjoying tons of great Island adventures. Throughout each year, with our son (Nolen), we love to uncover and experience the great outdoor activities the Island has to offer.

We've spent years exploring the Island from top to bottom - North, South, East and West - so we know firsthand where to find all the best outdoor adventures. And we're always talking to other locals to find out about the great adventures they're having!

We know that some of the most memorable adventures are off the "beaten path!" We're finding them, so we'll tell you all about the best:

  • hiking
  • camping
  • sport fishing
  • golfing
  • kayaking
  • surfing
  • whale watching
...AND MORE!

WAIT! We also know that "adventure" for some people might be a glass of wine on a wine tour, or combing the beaches for seaweed. We've found plenty of other unforgettable experiences hidden away here on the Island to tell you about!

If you love the outdoors and love to search out unique activities, then Vancouver-Island-Adventures.com is THE ultimate information source for finding your next great Vancouver Island outdoor experience.
