SENSATIONAL Sooke Potholes | Adventures on Vancouver Island
Our first full day on Vancouver Island started off with a BANG at the super sweet Sooke Potholes Regional Park. There is so much to do here: cliff jumping, swimming holes, underwater caves, potholes, narrows, waterfalls and even some lovely tranquil beach-like areas. I can't say enough good things about this place! It was so much fun and a great first adventure here on Vancouver Island, BC, Canada.

Sooke Potholes - Sooke, BC Canada
A short flight over Sooke Potholes Provincial Park
Sooke Potholes - Sooke, British Columbia
Sooke Potholes Provincial Park, or the Sooke Potholes, is located on the banks of the spectacular Sooke River and features potholes unlike anything youve ever witness before.
Our potholes are rare geological formations: a series of deep, smooth rock pools in the Sooke River. Accessible from Sooke River Road, this local hotspot features some of the best freshwater swimming around and is a great mid-day picnic spot. The pools and potholes are crystal clear, and refreshingly clean.
The park is also easily accessed from the Regional Galloping Goose Trail. In fact, the last 20 kilometers of the Goose weaves through Sooke Potholes Regional Park, ending at Leechtown.
For more information on the Sooke Region, please visit the official Discover Sooke website at

The Grouse Nest at Atwater Landing, 1424 Gillespie Road for sale in Sooke BC.
The Grouse Nest at Atwater Landing is a spectacular oceanfront sub-dividable estate encompassing 33.8 hectares on the well-protected Sooke Harbour. With nearly a kilometre of shoreline offering easy access to the fertile fishing waters of the Pacific Ocean, this west-facing property is the epitome of a West Coast wonderland. Old growth and Arbutus forest is dissected by a meandering creek; orcas, eagles and other spectacular wild life cohabitate nearby; the Galloping Goose Trail welcomes cyclists and hikers to traverse the property.
Situated on a prime sunbathed peninsula with south, west and north exposure, the European-style lodge is a legendary property whose history dates back to the 1930s. With your vision plus expert renovation and interior redesign, the 15,000-square foot, 12-bedroom lodge could be transformed into a lavish single-family home, a luxurious resort for retreats or fishing expeditions, or perhaps serve as a community centre to a more extensive development.
Grouse Nest is located in Sooke, a thriving bedroom community just 40km from downtown Victoria. The area is currently undergoing a boom of residential and commercial development. Sooke supports medium-density mixed-use development, offering many opportunities and possibilities for this property, including the addition of a marina.
The Area
The District of Sooke is the region’s southwestern gateway to Vancouver Island’s rugged West Coast. Hikers flock to the famed Juan de Fuca and West Coast Trails. Campers book years in advance for picture-perfect sites in the many provincial parks that dot the coastline as far west as Port Renfrew. Daytrippers explore East Sooke Park and Roche Cove Regional Park, while others cycle and trek the Galloping Goose. Swimmers relish the cool fresh waters of Sooke Potholes and Matheson Lake. Fishing enthusiasts drop crab traps and launch their vessels from the harbour, and whale-watching boats frequent the surrounding waters. Foodies and travel-trendsetters are lured to the region’s acclaimed restaurants and resorts. Sooke has developed a reputation as a prime destination for adventurers and eco-tourists seeking immersion in West Coast splendour.
The Potential
The area adjacent to this property has undergone extensive research as preparation for potential development including midden archaeological and environmental impact studies, servicing statistics, projected demographics, neighbourhood planning, marketing strategy, and much more. Topographical and other detailed information is available for your consideration.
Grouse Nest at Atwater Landing is offered at just 6.98 million Canadian, substantially below current market value for immediate sale.

Canada Day Bikepacking Adventure - Victoria to Sooke Potholes
Finally, we both have a day off together (two days actually)! We decided to take advantage of the Canada Day holiday and ride out to the Spring Salmon Place Campgrounds.
The campground is located just north of the Sooke Potholes park and conveniently just off of the Galloping Goose Trail. After navigating through the Canada Day celebrations in downtown Victoria, we hopped on the Goose and road right out to the campground.
After setting up camp, we explored for a bit and played some cards. We packed up early morning and explored the Sooke Potholes park. There is an old abandon resort, Deertrail, within the part which was pretty cool to see.
We stopped at Caffe Fantastico for lunch once arriving back in Victoria, then finished the day off with a beer at home!
