Comox is located almost halfway up the east coast of Vancouver Island. It is a small, picturesque town that offers unique experiences in all aspects of living. Whether you come for skiing, golfing, fishing, hiking or beachcombing, you’ll find it here. Downtown Comox holds an array of interesting shops, intermingled with beautiful parks and scenic waterfront walkways. During the summer, ocean activities are the main draw, whereas in the winter, Mt. Washington attracts skiers and snowboarders.

“I got up this morning and went skiing on Mt. Washington, then came down to Crown Isle and did some golfing. Now this evening I’m going out to do some fishing. Where else can in the world can you say that?” - Quoted from a very happy tourist.
