Overview

Vancouver Island Lodge is a world-class fishing and adventure destination in beautiful Sooke, British Columbia. Some of the world’s best Salmon and Halibut fishing is just a short boat ride, on the calm seas, away from our comfortable lodge. Our professional guides will ensure that you have the trip of lifetime, experience the true west coast lifestyle, and bring home your limit of delicious Pacific Salmon and Halibut.

Vancouver Island, BC is known for its world class scenery and fishing. The weather is beautiful, and the seas are calm all year. The Salmon and Halibut found in the Juan de Fuca Strait rival those found anywhere around Vancouver Island. Join us for a tour of the area around Vancouver Island Lodge.

Located just 30 minutes from Victoria International Airport, Vancouver Island Lodge is located on a tranquil private acreage with an exceptional beachfront. From whale watching to hiking, there is so much to see and explore around Vancouver Island Lodge. Sooke’s popularity as a scenic tourist destination has existed for generations. The area’s popularity has increased as a base for visiting the wilderness parks of Vancouver Island’s southwest coast—the West Coast Trail and the Juan de Fuca Provincial Park which includes the now highly popular Juan de Fuca Marine Trail.

Flights from Western Canada arrive @ Victoria Airport at 0830. We are a 45 minute drive away—fishing by 10 am.
