Victoria
Victoria, the capital of British Columbia, is an ocean-going city, surrounded on three sides by water. Friendly and unhurried, Victoria is a fun city to visit with kids, especially in summer when it's still daylight at 9:00pm. Let the kids decide whether to ride the charming pint-sized harbour ferry, munch on muffins in a tea room, go whale watching, play in Beacon Hill Park or stroll around the Inner Harbour.
