Salt Spring Island is the largest and most settled of the Gulf Islands, located between Vancouver Island and the city of Vancouver. Simple to get to - hop a ferry or catch a float plane. The scenery alone makes getting here half the fun. The hardest part will be making the decision of which option to choose!
