The Gulf Islands

Self-proclaimed artist havens, the Gulf Islands off the east coast of Vancouver Island host small communities that welcome travellers with open arms and warm smiles. Open markets and inviting studios display the wares of the Island's creative residents. Bring home hand-dipped candles, sparkling stained glass, or Island-made goat cheese. Relax and enjoy the Gulf Islands and their tranquil and serene atmosphere.

The Gulf Islands can be reached via ferries from Victoria, Vancouver, Crofton, Chemanius, and Nanaimo. Floatplanes and small airplanes can be chartered to most areas on the Gulf Islands.
