About

The inviting water and the 225 metre long sandy beach have made Bamberton Park an ideal spot for visitors. Frolic in the warm waves, lounge in the sand and enjoy the views across the inlet. To the east are the shores of the Saanich Peninsula, with the southern Gulf Islands and Mt. Baker beyond. Rising sharply to the west are the mountains of south Vancouver Island. A vehicle-accessible campground is nestled in this forest environment, where eagles and osprey can be seen circling high above. Waterfowl and seals are frequent visitors to the surrounding waters. The park is very popular in the summer months, and can be busy as well in June, when a number of nearby schools make field trips to study the intertidal life on the beach. With Victoria just a 30 minute drive south over the scenic Malahat Drive, Bamberton is within easy reach of many tourist attractions. You can also hop on the Mill Bay ferry for the 25 minute trip to Brentwood Bay and visit the world-renowned Butchart Gardens.
