A haven for wildlife, eagles and seabirds soar above the Salish Sea and British Columbia’s southern Gulf Islands off the eastern coast of Vancouver Island. Sheltered, islet-dotted waters teem with seals, otters, orcas and porpoises. Explore the rare eco-systems and unique Mediterranean-like climate.

Au-dessus de la mer des Salish et de la région sud des îles Gulf se trouve un havre pour les aigles et les oiseaux de mer. Les eaux abritées et parsemées d’îlots regorgent de phoques, de loutres, d’orques et de marsouins. Découvrez de rares écosystèmes et un climat méditerranéen unique.
