When you’re not playing bridge, you can find many interesting things to do in Victoria, both on-water and off.

Victoria is one of the best places in the world to watch whales.

Humpback whales and orcas (killer whales) frequent our waters from April to October each year. Several whale-watching outfits operate out of Victoria harbour. Just Google “Whale watching Victoria” for more information.
