British Columbia

The Port of Victoria, located on Vancouver Island, British Columbia, is a smaller but vibrant port known for its diverse marine traffic, including ferries, cruise ships, and commercial vessels. The port serves as a gateway for tourism and trade, benefiting from its scenic harbor and proximity to the beauty of the Gulf Islands and the Strait of Juan de Fuca.

The Port of Vancouver, on the mainland, is Canada’s busiest and largest port. It plays a crucial role in international trade, handling a wide range of cargo, including containers, bulk commodities, and breakbulk shipments. The port is strategically situated along the Pacific Ocean, with access to significant seaways like the Strait of Georgia and the Strait of Juan de Fuca, which facilitate shipping routes to Asia and beyond.

Both ports contribute to the economic vitality of British Columbia and provide critical connections to the surrounding seaways, making them essential nodes in the region’s maritime infrastructure.
