The Comox Valley
Located on the east coast of central Vancouver Island, the Comox Valley is an extraordinary outdoor paradise that combines mountain and sea activities in a moderate climate.
In a few hours drive, outdoor enthusiasts can move from one side of the island to the other, can move to the the fabulous Gulf Islands or be on the majestic mainland of British Columbia.
Water activities range from kayaking and canoeing in spectacular sea settings to our exciting fresh water lakes and rivers. Some of Canada's best scuba diving can be found in local waters. And, of course, the Island is known world wide for its fly fishing - particularly salmon.
Mountain activities keep challenging enthusiasts throughout the year. Mt. Washington Alpine Resort offers an exciting mix of alpine and Nordic skiing. Strathcona and other Island parks offer wondrous hiking and climbing. Some of Canada's best new mountain biking trails are developing throughout  the Island.
