Victoria, BC Canada

The Ogden Point Breakwater is a popular walk near downtown Victoria that follows the cement structure from Dallas Road out towards on the Juan de Fuca Strait to a LIGHTHOUSE on its furthest end. The area gives people an opportunity to see Victoria's busy harbour traffic as cruise ships, ferries, sailboats, float planes, helicopters and more all pass through the area to reach Victoria. Wildlife is also commonly spotted along the breakwater, from seagulls playfully gliding through the harbour winds to seals hanging around as fishermen cast their lines from the edges of the breakwater.

Ogden Point in Victoria is a popular waterfront destination known for its scenic views, vibrant marine activity, and the iconic breakwater stretching into the ocean. Located just a short distance from downtown Victoria, it’s a favourite spot for both locals and visitors to enjoy a leisurely walk, watch cruise ships dock, or soak in the beautiful coastal scenery.

The Ogden Point Breakwater in Victoria is enjoyable for anyone looking to enjoy a relaxing and scenic walk by the ocean. The breakwater stretches 765 meters, offering a pleasant, accessible stroll along the top with guard rails for safety. Along the way, at the end, there’s a lighthouse and benches that provide fantastic views of the cruise ships docked nearby and the open waters of Juan de Fuca Strait. It’s a perfect spot to unwind and enjoy the fresh sea breeze.

For those who want to get closer to the water, stairs lead down to the lower level, where you can walk across the massive 15-ton granite blocks that have been in place for over a century. This area offers a unique perspective of the breakwater and a chance to see people fishing or scuba divers exploring the waters below.

Cruise Ships
The deep-sea berths at Ogden Point were originally constructed around the same time as the Panama Canal, marking a significant period in global maritime history.

These berths played a crucial role in shipping British Columbia’s lumber and grains from the Canadian Prairies to destinations around the world, establishing Victoria as a key player in international trade.

Today, while the cargo operations have shifted, the port remains bustling with activity, welcoming nearly a million visitors each summer as cruise ships stop on their way to Alaska, making Ogden Point a vibrant hub of tourism and marine activity.
