Victoria on Vancouver Island draws visitors to its harbour and gardens, best reached via Victoria International or by ferry from Vancouver. Whistler is a prime ski and outdoor destination, typically accessed by flying into Vancouver then driving. The Okanagan Valley, known for wineries and lakes, is served by Kelowna International. Your choice of airport depends on whether you prioritize urban exploration, island charm, mountain adventure or wine country."

Kelowna works well for the Okanagan’s wineries and lakes, while Victoria puts you directly on the island for the capital and coastal scenery. Smaller airports like Kamloops or Cranbrook suit road trips into the interior and the Rockies."
