Victoria grew around its harbour; the area is on the traditional territories of the Lekwungen-speaking Songhees and Esquimalt peoples and saw rapid Victorian-era development tied to shipping and the Hudson’s Bay Company.
Conservation
Harbour stewardship and respectful viewing reduce disturbance to marine life; visitors are asked to keep distance from wildlife and avoid feeding birds and seals.
