The boat launch at the Esquimalt Angler's Club is the most user-friendly in Greater Victoria and offers easy access to the year round fishing opportunities that Southern Vancouver Island has to offer. To the east of us you find what is called Department of National Defence Land, which is primarily naval residences and large fields rolling down to the ocean. Public transit is accessed just a block away on Lampson Street giving an easy connection to downtown Victoria. Or hop on a harbour ferry from the stop at West Bay Marina, about a 15 minute walk from the cottage. Walking around the area is the best way to experience it and the town of Esquimalt has done a great job of illustrating this in a series of brochures with suggested walking tours along the ocean and gives some history on this area. We have hard copies on hand for guests to use. There is also an easy biking route to downtown Victoria in 15 minutes. Guest access You will have the Guest House all to yourself.
