From hiking, kayaking and beachcombing to a vibrant arts-and-crafts scene, Salt Spring is an idyllic place for an island holiday.
It’s one of the most beautiful places in Canada, actually!
And even though the island is relatively small (you can drive it from top to bottom in 45 minutes), there are plenty of magical things to do on Salt Spring Island.
Salt Spring is so hilly that we doubt we would have tried going for a ride without the assistance of these electric bicycles. We still had to pedal, though.
It features an upgraded glass-walled deck, with a rollout canopy and heat lamps. You can sit outside in comfort, from spring to fall, and enjoy the water views.
If you’re new to kayaking, a guided tour around Ganges Harbor is a great introduction to the beauty of the Gulf Islands from the perspective of a kayak.
