GETTING AROUND VANCOUVER ISLAND
SOOKE
This park is the town's most famous attraction.
Encompassing the Sooke River as it descends from the highlands, this is one of the most unique provincial parks on Vancouver Island. The most interesting part of the park is at the base of a large waterfall, where deep potholes have formed from a millennia of erosion.

The easiest way to enjoy the ocean when visiting Sooke is to walk out along Whiffin Spit. This long stretch of sand is a natural breakwater that extends just over a kilometer into the bay. A mostly level graveled walking trail runs the entire distance, and a walk to the end and back clocks in at just over 2.5 kilometers.
