Victoria’s favourable weather makes every season special in its own way.
Golf in Canada this January? Absolutely! You will be surprised by what experiences await this winter in Victoria.
Victoria, BC, Canada, is not always the first place people think about as a snow-free destination, but as it turns out, Victoria is a fantastic winter vacation spot that blends charming character with cozy, and calming winter vibes.
Victoria’s winter is mild in comparison to most of Canada with lows of 41°F. This means that guests can enjoy many outdoor experiences in Victoria that are not available anywhere else in Canada. For example, Victoria offers some world-class golf courses, and they can be played year-round. This includes courses like Highland Pacific and the PGA-certified Bear Mountain courses.
Wildlife viewing is year-round as well! Although whales may not be as common, elephant seals, rare birds, porpoises and sea otters can all be found along the coast. Covered whale-watching vessels offer the opportunity to see these resident animals in their natural habitat.
After a long day on the links or a day out exploring the Juan De Fuca Strait, relax into the Veranda at the iconic Fairmont Empress for some delicious fondue, s’mores, and winter cocktails while soaking in the beautiful lights of the Parliament Building and the Inner Harbour.
