The Comox Valley on Vancouver Island

AppId is over the quota

Vancouver Island has been recognized by Conde Nast as one of the top islands in North America, yet many people who come here to visit are not aware of all that it has to offer. Do you know, for example, that this island, located just off of the West Coast of Canada, offers one of the most temperate climates in Canada year round?

There are few places in Canada where you can actually golf, ski and fish all in the same day. The Comox Valley on Vancouver Island is one of the exceptions. Increasingly, people from many parts of Canada are coming out here to visit, and subsequently deciding to stay. Anyone who is looking for a more relaxed pace of life surrounded by scenery that includes mountains, ocean, lakes, and rivers, may find that the Comox Valley should be looked at as a serious option for a next home. Close to ancient rainforests, rugged West Coast scenery, and filled with friendly people, this region has a lot of attraction in many areas. Whether you enjoy music festivals, seafood festivals, farmers markets, winery visits, or a stroll on a quiet beach, you will find it here.

market offers offers a wide variety of homes in a broad range of prices. Your choices range from manufactured to million dollar homes. Homes and properties can be found in both urban and rural settings and close to or on waterfront locations.

The Comox Valley was originally called the Land of Plenty and this label is still applicable today. The region encompasses about 660 square miles of Vancouver Island and it is currently home to about 65,000 inhabitants. Nearby Strathcona Park was designated as a provincial park in 1911, and it is the oldest such park in the province of British Columbia. The age of the park, however, pales in comparison to the age of some of the trees on Vancouver Island. Many are well over 1,000 years old.

No matter how old you are, there is always something to do in the Comox Valley. Head out to a local pub for some food, head down to the Comox Pier to take in some spectacular scenery, head up to Mount Washington to go mountain biking in the summer (or skiing in the winter), head out to Seal Bay park for a short hike, or head out into the Strait of Georgia for a day on the ocean. These are but a few of the many options you have when you come out to the Comox Valley to visit. This is West Coast living the way it was meant to be!
