Sea Views, Fine Dining, and Spa Services According to legend, the
Greek-born sailor known as Juan de Fuca sailed to North America's
western coast in 1592, searching for the fabled Northwest Passage.
Though he never discovered the Passage, de Fuca discovered an inlet
that would later bear his name. The Juan de Fuca Strait curves like
a giant boomerang between Vancouver Island and the state of
Washington, and is filled with gray whales in the spring and killer
whales in the summer. Best Western Premier Prestige Oceanfront
Resort is nestled within Sooke Harbour, but also overlooks the Juan
de Fuca Strait and the Olympic Mountains beyond. The hotel's
neocolonial façade faces the waterfront, with white columns and
verandas that pop against the blue and gray surroundings. Inside,
the Mix by Ric's boasts some of the resort's best views of the
harbor in a setting reminiscent of a study, with brass-studded
leather chairs, dark wood trim, and old maps that were totally
wrong. The dinner menu features Pacific Northwest–inspired tapas
such as grilled scallops ($15 CAN) and entrees that include fresh
sockeye salmon ($23 CAN) and filet mignon ($34 CAN). Ocean-view and
premium ocean-view rooms all overlook the harbor's jetties as well.
The décor varies from room to room, with tropical-themed interiors
that add vibrant color to the moody Pacific Northwest palette, and
contemporary interiors with slate hues borrowed from the rocky
coastline. Downstairs at the Ocean Palm Spa , you can choose from a
range of basic services such as leg waxing ($60 CAN) and signature
body treatments including a seaweed body wrap ($105 CAN). Greater
Victoria, British Columbia: Rugged Seaside Bluffs and Rich History
Located about 45 minutes west of downtown Victoria, the seaside
township of Sooke is surrounded by natural splendor. A number of
nearby provincial and regional parks—including East Sooke , and
Juan de Fuca —showcase the rocky coastline's tide pools and
pine-covered bluffs. Sooke Potholes is among the most popular
regional parks in summer, when kids cannonball into the emerald and
sapphire swimming holes. Back in town, the Sooke Region Museum
illuminates the local history from First Nations to 19th-century
loggers. For a more visually arresting history lesson, head to the
Royal BC Museum in the heart of Victoria, where totem poles rise
above Thunderbird Park and a reconstructed wooly mammoth models the
latest tuskwear. Read the Fine Print for important info on travel
