Victoria is absolutely gorgeous in the summer. The island biosphere means it never gets stiflingly hot, so you’re able to enjoy cool ocean breezes while still enjoying the sun, and there’s just so much to do downtown. Check out these fun events!
BANNOCK AND BREWS
A unique opportunity to learn about the aboriginal culture of Vancouver Island, Bannock & Brews on the Harbour is also a chance to enjoy an evening out on the water! Taking place on the Orca Spirit II, you’ll be told about the histories and traditions of the local area while sipping on delicious microbrew from Category 12 brewery! Then, enjoy a gourmet meal prepared by local chefs, fusing traditional first nations food with other gourmet cuisines for a one of a kind experience. Once the meal is over, there will be music spun by local DJ James Green, making this a perfect night out in Victoria’s beautiful Inner Harbour. 19+.
