Stay and Play
People walking along Whiffen Spit Sooke, British Columbia is one of those places that you never want to leave once you’ve experienced the small-town charm and vitality. Just a 40-minute drive from downtown Victoria, the welcoming community of Sooke offers a secluded west coast getaway with a breathtaking backdrop.

After an invigorating morning whale watching with Sooke Coastal Explorations, take a stroll along the sandy, wind-swept shorelines, ideal for beachcombing and uncovering marine treasures. Then, spend a day exploring East Sooke Regional Park’s more than 3,500 acres of ancient coastal rainforest. From family-friendly footpaths to challenging rocky trails, the wilderness reserve offers marine trails suitable for everyone. After a day of hiking and exploring, visit some local artist studios or kick back at the spa. However you want to spend your time, Sooke has something for everyone.

So, stay with us, play with us and fall in love with Sooke.
