SaltSpring Island (yes, there are two “correct” spellings) has an interesting mix of merchants, farmers, sailors, artists, musicians, writers, artisans, and travelers. World-class accommodations, restaurants and parks make it one of Canada’s top tourist destinations. It is a mecca and often a starting point for sailors and kayakers exploring the gulf islands. Blessed with mild weather, fair seas, breathtaking views and a fertile soil, salt spring is also home to some of the finest wines made in the world. People come from all over the planet to sample our famous blackberry port, which sells out every year. The climate is so mild that palm, kiwi, and olive trees can be grown.
