British Columbia
British Columbia is a place where the mountains meet the ocean, forests stretch for miles, and there's always another road worth taking. From coastal communities and island towns to bustling cities and mountain villages, BC offers plenty of ways to explore.
Start on the coast in Victoria, wander the waterfront and historic neighbourhoods, then make your way to Vancouver for great food, lively neighbourhoods and spectacular mountain and ocean views. Head into the mountains for skiing and summer adventures around Whistler, or follow the coast to discover the beaches, forests and small communities of Vancouver Island and the Sunshine Coast.
Beyond the well-known destinations, BC is full of places worth slowing down for. Explore the Okanagan Valley, discover the rugged beauty of the Kootenays, walk among ancient forests, or take a scenic drive through the Interior. Along the way, you'll find local festivals, farmers' markets, galleries, roadside stops and communities with stories of their own.
British Columbia is also home to rich and diverse Indigenous cultures, with traditions, art, history and stories that are an important part of the province's identity.
