| Culture in the Comox Valley is defined by not only the arts but also by heritage, sport and recreation and the natural environment. | |
Outdoor adventure for the cultural eco-enthusiast is just moments away in the Comox Valley. The cool stillness of the rainforest, alpine meadows, craggy peaks and protected coastal waters provide an ideal setting for a variety of wilderness experiences, eco-tours and communing with the culture of nature.
Tour options include viewing the Comox Valley by helicopter, boat, kayak, mountain bike, horse back or foot. Go eagle sighting, observe killer whales or enjoy a trip through Strathcona Park to see the resident black bears. Enjoy the incredible views of the Georgia Straight from the alpine heights. Contact local guides and airlines for adventures to the Comox Glacier, the Beaufort Range or the Strathcona Park high alpine. Group and private tours are available and many operators offer service in German and French.

You don't have to go far to see wildlife in the Comox Valley. Deer are frequent visitors to gardens, yards and golf courses and black bears are seen spring through fall munching on wild fruit and berries and devouring the remains of spawning salmon.
In the Comox Valley wilderness you may just catch a glimpse of a cougar or member of the Island Roosevelt elk population; the adjacent ocean waters support a healthy population of seals and sea lions. Bald eagles, herons, hawks and countless song and marine birds inhabit or visit the Valley's marshes, fields, forests and waterways.
