The Everything Store! Very worth a wander through. Everything from an actual iron works in the basement, all the way through hardware, housewares, clothing, camping, and fabric in the attic. This is in a historic building, and there are antiques throughout.

My faveourite bar. 50 taps, great whiskeys. Say hi to Tyler & Talia. You can belly up to Vic's longest bar, or curl up in a booth. Ask for a shaft - it's a Victoria special. Also, the charcuterie is ON POINT.

The closest sand beach to downtown Vic. A beautiful stretch, nestled in a gorgeous neighbourhood. There's a few picnic tables and some public washrooms. Parking is tight, as it gets busy in the summer.

Arguably the best parkade downtown for parking.... but I love it because it's my favorite downtown vantage point. Come up here for sunset, or fireworks. Free to ride the rickety elevator to the top :) AKA Yates St Parkade
