Outdoor Activities in South Island: Surfing and Windsurfing in the South Island Region of Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada.

South Island surfing and windsurfing

Yes — it’s true! You can surf in the Sooke Region. Jordan River looks out over the open Pacific which sends huge waves crashing into the shore, especially during storms, and is a popular spot among the growing community of local surfers. Remember — this isn’t Hawaii the water is cold, so suit-up accordingly.
Windsuffing is also a big sport at Jordan River, as well as at Gordon’s Beach, just west of the Sooke townsite. Victoria’s favourite windsurfing locations include the waters off Dallas Road at the foot of Cook Street, Oak Bay, and Cadboro Bay. Elk and Beaver Lake Park is ideal for a slightly tamer experience.
