Unforgettable Oceanfront House on Vancouver Island

There is an abundance of activities to do while staying at the Otter Point House.

Salmon Fishing. Experience the thrill of reeling in a 30 - 40 lb. salmon or battling a giant halibut, weighing in at up to 100+ lbs. Sooke offers some of the best salmon fishing in the world and is also known for its world-class halibut fishing. Many fishing charters are based out of Sooke Harbour Marina. Additionally you can rent fishing equipment in town and fish right of the rocks at Otter Point House. Otter Point Park is immediately adjacent and generally considered the best place to shore fish in the Sooke area.
Whale Watching. Looking for an exhilarating west coast marine adventure? Jump aboard a whale watching marine tour. These tours depart from the Sooke basin and explore the Strait of Juan de Fuca in search of Killer Whales, Porpoises, Gray and Humpback Whales as well as a handful of smaller marine life such as seals, sea lions and various species of birds.

Dining. Though Sooke is a modest size, it punches above its weight for culinary options and offers a variety of dining experiences, from fine dining to pubs and cafes.

Beaches. There are many stunning beaches and parks to be discovered in the Sooke Region including the easy-to-get-to Whiffen Spit but if you would like to go on a bit of an excursion to find something more secluded, try a trip to Botanical Beach, China Beach, French Beach, Sombrio Beach, or Mystic Beach.

Hiking. Some of the best hiking on Vancouver Island can be found in the Sooke Region. Vast networks of trails, some many well marked, some not, can take you on an adventure through the rainforest, beaches or up along Hurricane Ridge and the Kludak trails in the alpine zone. Don’t miss Sooke Potholes Provincial Park, these natural pools are carved into Sooke River’s bedrock.


Biking. Sooke is poised to become the outdoor recreation capital of Vancouver Island- with mountain biking as the prominent jewel in its heavily encrusted crown.
