Community Information
Scenic Comox Valley is one of Vancouver Island's best-kept secrets! It is surrounded by majestic mountains, rushing rivers, lush rain forests, and shimmering seas.
The winters are short and mild with warm, dry summers.
The Valley includes several communities:
Comox (a relaxed seaside town), Courtenay (a bustling urban city), Cumberland (a young and artistic village), and rural areas North and South including the islands of Hornby and Denman.
The Valley is an ideal place to raise a family with excellent schools, and a community college.
There is a friendly and supportive physician community and an outstanding number of opportunities for recreational programs both indoors and out to support work/life balance.
There are lots of annual festivals, a performing arts theatre, great boutique shopping, wonderful restaurants, farmers markets, and vineyards.
Mount Washington Ski Resort, a 20-minute drive away, has 1700 acres of terrain and Cumberland has world-renowned mountain biking trails available year-round.
The city of Courtenay is located in the north central region of Vancouver Island amidst a beautiful agricultural landscape.
Named after a local river, it is the urban centre of the Comox Valley and is home to one of the most charming downtown streetscapes on Vancouver Island.
As one of Canada's fastest growing communities, Courtenay offers a wide range of services and amenities.
Its location in one of Canada's finest four-season playgrounds creates opportunities for outdoor activities galore including swimming, boating, fishing, golfing, skiing, and sailing.
