@@dustinwatkins7843 the prices get more reasonable as you go north on the Island. Everyone floods to Victoria which has limited spots to build more homes as its surrounded by the ocean and mountains.
What many people around the world do not know is that this coastline is exactly the same as this video for 1500 km north of this island all the way to Anchorage Alaska, with almost NO population the entire way. It is truly one of the last almost untouched wild places on earth, accessible by a few remote roads and summer ferries and cruise ships. Fortunately a huge oil shipping port wanted by Alberta province right in the middle of it at the town of Prince Rupert has been temporarily dis-allowed by Prime Minister Trudeau, but there is danger it may be revived if he loses power in the future (I am not much of a fan of Trudeau, but I supported him fully on this issue).
Vancouver Island, and British Columbia as a whole, is one of the most beautiful places in Canada and the world. Absolutely stunning and I can't wait to go back there again! The Butchart Gardens are a must see! I'm not even a garden person but even I was in awe at the magnificence of the gardens. I have plenty of family on the island and hope to one day move their myself. Victoria is also one of the most relaxed and enjoyable cities I have been in. Love from Alberta!

The language of course is English (and some Native People's languages they know) so what 18 Rabbit is referring to is the VanIsle lifestyle which is quaint and modest escapism for most people. The southeast part of the island around Victoria, Duncan and Nanaimo (nan-eye-mo) is populated with about a half million people along 100 km of shoreline, beyond that the people really thin out. Beware of some really, really, kooky people in and around Nanaimo, the only real blight on this otherwise wonderful place.
There are several other reasons why they like this place ... you need to look into who and what these creatures are. Life here is ridiculously expensive here ...
EXTREMELY BREATH TAKING BIRDS EYE VIEW THAT SMOOTHS THE RHYTHMS OF THE SOUL AS ONE IS FLOWN AWAY WITH BEAUTY OF MOTHER NATURE AND OFFCOURSE BEAUTIFUL SOOTHING PLAY BACK MUSIC WITH VERY USEFUL INFORMATION.
seasonal i guess, they didn't mention skiing, perhaps have a conflict with whistler/blackcomb lol. If they're going to mention hiking 28 miles of the juan de fuca trail then it doesn't follow that strathcona gets 0 mention especially when a trip to Tofino is put on the list which is an easy 4 hour trip one way for a tourist staying in parksville lol.
I miss this beautiful place so much! It has been a year coming back to India, leaving that amazing place behind. It truly adheres to the truly Beautiful British Columbia!
Heather MacDee I live in Ontario and thought they sounded weird too. Then thought maybe that’s just have British Columbians pronounced them. Thanks for confirming my hunch.
Wow this is an old tour video of Vancouver island. I live on Vancouver Island and it amazing place to live. And I am proud to be an Vancouver islander.
And this video is just a small sample of BC, as it is known short-hand locally. The rest of the province, all 600,000 sq km of it, is just as fabulous, in different ways. Along its border with Alberta province, the Rocky Mtns are super nice, too.
you sound proud of it. I don't; actually I don't care. It is the most expensive province in Canada to live in. Yes, the place is nice, the people on the other hand … they run away from each other.
@@u83208 "they run away from each other." Not that I have notice but they do tend to ignore people who complain (incorrectly) about a place they should move away from. Correction. Van Isle has one of the lowest Covid rates in the world (last summer was 200 cases with 950,000 people). This has been mostly achieved by social distancing . I guess some people are more readily socially distanced from. P.S. Have you ever lived in Canada more than 200 miles from the US border? You may find Vancouver Island CHEAP on your total cost of living thing.
@@u83208 For sure I am proud to live in BC. I feel sorry for people who don't, well if you don't care, not sure what made you watch this video in the 1st place let alone replying to comments. Personally, I have not encountered people running away from each other - if your comment has been from late experiences, I am sure you understand people are respecting the community to stay healthy. Lastly, 'quality is not cheap' - at least in most cases.
My home. Born and raised in Victoria living up island in Nanaimo; a city with 5 lakes in its borders and an hour and a half drive to world class skiing :)
Great video, although it only covered roughly half of Vancouver Island, no mention of the Comox Valley Glacier or world-class Skiing on several mountains, Campbell River and so many more. If you are thinking of visiting our incredible island, just know this video could have been 4 times as long and still would not cover the whole 500km rock we call home. -Chad from Victoria.
Thanks so much for your comments and we absolutely love Vancouver Island too! There is so much to do there, and we are really looking forward to doing another shoot so we can share more of what Vancouver Island has to offer.

This is pretty much just a scenic guide to South Vancouver Island. If you stay in Victoria and only travel to Sooke and Juandefuca, you really haven’t left Victoria yet.
I'm from Van Isle, and bias. But, I have never been to an area with more diverse beauty than my home Island. Come visit anytime, you will be glad you did.
I was born and raised in Vancouver and the nature there is absolutely breathtaking, there is no place that I could call home that Vancouver BC, 🇨🇦 South Fl isn’t comparable to this beauty lots of flat marshy lands filled with gators 🐊 😩😩!! I miss Canada!
Come to the north shore of Lake Superior to Thunder Bay area. It's is just as scenic as Vancouver Island and no risk of megathrust earthquake and affordable to live or visit
@@marcopolo9146 Travelling, anywhere on the Island, has NEVER been banned. However the Tofino/ Ucluelet business do advertise they are open but prefer people wait until the pandemic is over for people to visit. Is that not a nice way to run a society?
@@marcopolo9146 Well they were not offensive enough as the "mainlanders" continued to come over. To be honest many Islanders went to the mainland but in any case the majority of new vases of Covid on the Island have been traced to "off Island" sources. Contained quickly. But sick is sick. The majority still did the right thing and I am happy about that.

Just how tourism is. Japan tourism guides consist of 3 cities, all central Japan. You'd need a proper 2-3 hour movie length video to share what Vancouver Island has to offer.
Noticed that as well. Not touching on anything past Parksville is a tragedy as well. Pacific Rim National park may be the most breathtakingly beautiful place on the Island.
Sooke rhymes with 'cook', not 'boot'. coh-WE-chun Bay (Cowichan) = COW-ih-chun. Saanich (SAWN-itch) Inlet is actually SAN-itch. YOU-kuh-let (Ucluelet) = you-CLUE-lit. Aside from the above pronunciation gaffes, this was a beautifully done video.
Actually, I grew up in Sooke and he did pronounce it right, the oo is long, it rhymes with boot. If you visit Sooke and pronounce it as rhyming with cook locals will cringe. The name is from the first Nation's name T'Sou-ke. The other names mentioned, however, were horribly wrong.
You missed more than half the island! There is far, far more to see once you head north past Parksville. Comox Valley, Campbell River, Port Hardy, All of Strathcona Park including Mt. Washington and so much more!
Half? More like 75%, and that is not even mentioning the fascinating "Gulf Islands, from Salt spring (ok Trial Islands) to Malcolm (Ok Triangle Island) , which are more "extreme" cultural change than Van Isle. Look up "Club Jed" or Jedediah Island for an interesting, almost impossible place to get to. bcparks.ca/explore/parkpgs/jedediah_is/
Such breathtaking beauty. I just love the place. Wonder what kinds of jobs are available there besides fishing and restaurants (oh and that background music is so soothing)
Vancouver and Victoria both have active tech communities - Amazon has just announced a new 3,000 job facility in Vancouver. Of course, nobody can afford to live in Vancouver, so maybe working remotely from Tofino?
I’m glad I live here in Vancouver Island. They should’ve add some lake within Nanaimo too. But I guess its not good enough for expedia. 🤷🏻♀️ They can visit Westwood lake, Pipers lagoon, or Neck point, Morell Nature Sanctuary...
Liam all of the places mentioned above is great to visit. Red fish blue fish restaurant is great! You can also try hop on hop off tour bus so you can see all the tourist spots in victoria its a 2 hour ride. I tried the boat tour, it wasnt worth it just fyi 😑 maybe just that time , you can try if you want. A lot of great places to visit is up north the island, like ucluelet, tofino, hornby island. If you can spare a day or two you should do a roadtrip and sleep in your car. It’s worth it! 😉 (bring bearspray if you are hiking, its aroud $50-$60, better be safe than sorry) have fun in your trip!

They could use a bit of effort to learn to pronounce place names correctly. So many cringes.
