Victoria Holiday Pleasures From Pacific Coast to Island Holidays
Eastern Canadians already plan autumn holidays in Victoria as the island offers year round delights. Enjoy balmy sea air, gardens, golf, tennis, yachting, sea bathing, cycling, and mountain adventures accessible via the Princess lines and other vessels. The Empress Hotel anchors the skyline with Crystal Gardens nearby for indoor sea bathing. Victoria blends old world charm with modern leisure, from royal golf courses to Beulah's Beacon Hill Park and the Malahat Drive, while roses bloom in December and the Empress hosts the winter golf classic. Follow the birds to Victoria, a touch of Old England on the British Columbia mainland.
