At Ogden Point, the Breakwater separates and protects Victoria’s inner Harbour from the Pacific Ocean. This kilometer long Unity Wall decorated with Aboriginal art provides breathtaking views of the ocean, the wildlife and one of Canada’s best dive spots (so I am told). At the end of the pier sits a light house which leads the way into the Harbour. Be cautious of this walk on windy days. The breakwater can seem narrow with multiple walkers and does not have a guard rail. On the day I made the walk the waves were calm but the wind prevented me from sitting on the bench at the end of the pier and watching the ocean liners and cruise ships. Before you head out for your walk have an ice cream at the cafe. I did!
British Columbia is a BEAUTIFUL place to live but, it's an EXPENSIVE place. Follow me on my journey through low cost ways to enjoy the province. Strap on you walking shoes, hiking boots or grab a paddle and come along for the ride as I explore the sights, sounds, eats and treats of BC on a budget.
