Salt Spring Island is located between Vancouver Island and mainland British Columbia, Canada, within the Gulf Islands. The island has long been synonymous with peace and tranquillity: it was used as a refuge by racially abused African Americans in the nineteenth century, a political refuge during the sixties and, today, offers a relaxing retreat from modern city life with its naturally beautiful landscape. The pine-clad hills stretch for miles, ascending to the highest points of the entire Southern Gulf Islands, providing excellent hiking trails along the way. And, once nicknamed ‘the coolest island in Canada’, Salt Spring is commonly flocked by artists, retired millionaires and musicians, with a total permanent population of just ten thousand. With ferry terminals in Fulford Harbour and Long Harbour, sailing to Salt Spring Island is quick and easy. Whether you’re coming from mainland Canada or Vancouver Island, there are frequent crossings to choose from, operated by one of the leading ferry companies in British Columbia.
Vancouver Island sits just off the west coast of Canada in the Pacific Ocean, part of the British Columbia province. As the largest landmass on the west coast of North America, with a population of just over 750,000, Vancouver Island is a massive wilderness with one of the world’s most diverse ecosystems, scattered with fishing communities and villages along the craggy coastline. It’s also one of the best places to watch whales on the planet, while offering great kayaking opportunities in summer and excellent skiing in winter. The state capital, Victoria, stands proudly on the southern tip, close to the United States border, known for its British colonial architecture, fairy-tale Craigdarroch Castle and vibrantly coloured Butchart Gardens. The easiest way to reach Vancouver Island from mainland Canada is by ferry, with regular routes to ports on the north coast, all the way down to Victoria in the south. Ferries also link the island with the United States, with frequent crossings from Seattle.
