Sooke in Canada has been a popular site for a private getaway for years. Made popular by the rugged beauty and unparalleled waterfront views, Sooke also lies just 40 minutes from Victoria so it is easily accessible. In Sooke, you’ll find a welcoming community full of local artisans and fantastic independent cafes and eateries. The area is surrounded by a number of hiking trails, the most popular being Galloping Goose Regional Trail. If you’re interested in bird-watching be sure to visit Whiffin Spit and enjoy swimming in Sooke Potholes Regional Park. Of course, there are also plenty of water activities to enjoy. We think that Sooke is the ideal vacation spot for friends and families and what better way to revel in the surrounding sights and sounds than staying in your own waterfront property?
