Victoria is on Vancouver Island, about an hour and twenty minutes by ferry from the mainland. You often see pods of whales near Active Pass during the crossing. There are malls, clubs, bars and other exciting things to do, but it's also a very sedate place. Victoria has been described as a 'little bit of Olde England' and it's a very apt description. They serve afternoon tea at the Empress Hotel. There are excellent beaches, but not right around the Victoria area. Qualicum beach and Tofino are superlative, but they're up island. That's not a terribly long distance. The temperature is the most moderate in Canada, due to the influence of the Pacific Ocean, and the temperature ranges from about 35 in the winter to 75 in the summer. It rarely snows in Victoria! Vancouver Island, and all of British Columbia, is very beautiful, with lots of lakes, rivers, mountains, and forests. One of the fun things to do in Victoria is join a padding team. They are very big on dragon boat paddling and outrigger canoe paddling and there are races pretty well every weekend somewhere on the island. There's great surfing on the Island too, but you usually wear a wet suit -- just a shorty -- when you're out in some absolutely awesome surf. UVic is a good school, with a beautiful campus, and it's very close to the downtown area. You're going to enjoy it.
