Southern Gulf Islands

The Southern Gulf Islands—Salt Spring, Galiano, Pender, Mayne, and Saturna—rise like verdant crowns from the Salish Sea, offering a rich tapestry of flavors and creativity. Each island offers its own unique character, woven together by shared values of community, artistry, and a deep connection to the land.

Salt Spring Island, the largest of the group, is a haven for food lovers, known for its strong locavore culture, artisan producers, and organic vineyards.

Galiano Island, affectionately dubbed the "Gem of the Gulf Islands," boasts rugged coastlines, lush forests, and dining experiences that honor fresh, local ingredients.

On Mayne Island, history comes alive alongside its famous local honey and comforting baked goods. Pender Island calls to outdoor enthusiasts with scenic trails, tranquil beaches, and cozy cafés offering island-inspired fare.

For those craving stillness, Saturna Island delivers serenity with handcrafted wines, seasonal produce, and views that inspire a deep sense of peace.

Whether you’re savouring the creations of local chefs, soaking in the wild beauty, or finding joy in island time, the Southern Gulf Islands are the perfect balance of creativity, relaxation, and connection.
