Victoria is known as one of the most liveable cities in Canada and the views from the Breakwater offer a few explanations why.

Take an afternoon or evening walk on the 730m long Breakwater to reach the Lighthouse and enjoy incredible ocean panoramas (though it can be pretty windy, here's a fair warning!)

On clear days, the mountains of Washington's Olympic Peninsula can be seen. Keep your eyes peeled for wildlife - seals are relatively common. This is a very popular local sunset viewing area.
