East Sooke Regional Park

Reviewed By loreng518 - Victoria, Canada

Lots of trails here and they are now pretty well marked but also be certain you know the way - how to get in and out! Easy 45 minute walks to 5+ hours of moderate to strenuous hiking over rocky terrain and along the ocean with lots of ups and downs and hills to scramble! Exquisite ocean views and charming spots to picnic or take a break; it's so worth the hike. Lots of friendly people and their dogs along the way; also be prepared to step aside for trail runners! Also breathtaking views along East Sooke Road if you just want to drive.

Reviewed By JamieB954 - Edmonton, Canada

This is a place we visit every time we come to the island in the summer. The water is crystal clear and awesome for swimming. The current is so gentle, it’s safe even for the little ones. Our teenage boys love cliff jumping and this is a great and safe place to do it.

This is just outside Sooke town centre near the bridge. We always take our friends and family visiting us there. They always buy something as it has very reasonably priced souvenirs with good quality and we buy as gifts for family and friends when traveling like mugs with humming birds on them and the Sooke name It has a very well presented museum of Sooke and the surrounding area with a good and friendly information centre.
