Located less than 10 minutes from Downtown Victoria, with easy access over Victoria’s recently completed Johnson Street Bridge, the neighbourhood of Esquimalt offers a unique blend of history, nature, and convenience.

Esquimalt offers a distinctive combination of history, numerous new developments, and several stunning beachfront parks. In the 1880s it was used as a port by the Royal Canadian Navy and is still home to the Canadian Forces Base.
