Justifiably famous for the local colour and quality of art and objects of desire carved, sewn, painted, forged, grown or baked on Salt Spring Island island.

Enjoy a beach walk. We're an Island surrounded by more beautiful islands and at low tide you can walk forever and revel in revealed sea life. Marvel at the view from the top of Mount Maxwell, hike Mount Erskine - look for the fairy doors along the trail!

Follow the self-guided tour to artists' home studios; see our greatest hits at Summer Art Craft - Mahon Hall; Gallery Walk in Ganges or Merchant Mews. Don't miss sculptor Morley Myers!

Visit renowned cheese, bread, and wine makers and several organic farms. Try our lamb, smoked tofu and dungeness crab - cook it yourself or dine at great restaurants followed by live music under the stars at the Tree House.

Explore the ocean shore from the seat of a kayak, or enjoy scenic heritage roads from your bicycle seat. Hike the many spectacular trails at Ruckle Park, Burgoyne Bay, Channel Ridge - you'll find your own favourites!

Enjoy a spa treatment, massage or yoga class and choose from absolutely any known healing modality - skilled practitioners live and work here!

Warm pristine lakes and a dock to swim out to, as in childhood. Hey, clothing is optional at Blackburn Lake.

Visit Wild Flower Moon for a tarot reading or call Tanya Lester for a Tea Leaf Reading. It wouldn't be Salt Spring Island if we didn't consult the oracles for insight and predictions.

Disc-golf - give it a try at Mouat's Park! Or golf our two nine-hole courses in a day and call it 18!

Salt Spring Island is a place to do everything or nothing - and we mean nothing, really. Design your own silent meditation retreat, or visit the Salt Spring Centre and be silent with others.
