Victoria is a destination for visitors year-round. Being in a sub-Mediterranean climate, Victoria enjoys the mildest climate in Canada. Due to Victoria's very mild climate, and with one acre of parkland per 20 people, opportunities for recreational activities continue year-round. Spring begins very early in Victoria and contrary to popular belief, it does not rain here all the time!
Victoria has many attractions, including the world-famous Butchart Gardens, whale watching tours, beautiful parks and beaches, spectacular scenery and many other attractions.
Situated overlooking the Inner Harbour are the Royal BC Museum, the Legislature Buildings and the venerable Fairmont Empress Hotel.
We enjoy mountain vistas and the rugged beauty of the Pacific Ocean. Victoria is green all rear round and many outdoor adventures are within the city limits. Come to Mini Meet West 2003 and get to know "The City of Gardens"!
