<a href="http://www.victoriaairport.com">Victoria Airport</a> is approximately 5 miles from Sidney BC and less than a mile from the <a href="http://www.pac.dfo-mpo.gc.ca/science/facilities-installations/ios-ism/index-eng.htm">Institute of Ocean Sciences</a>, world renowned for its earthquake centre and scientific research. <br />
The public transit system is a bit archaic, while the taxies line up with hopes you are going to Victoria, a minimum CAN $45.00 charge. (Sidney CAN $10.00) <br />
Sidney is a relaxing ‘suburb’ of Victoria filled with <a href="http://www.boutiquesidney.ca/">boutique shopping</a> and has a world presence as a ‘book town’. New to Sidney is <a href="http://www.oceandiscovery.ca/">Shaw Ocean Discovery Centre</a> an amazing learning educational museum/environment. <br />
Hotel costs vary, in Victoria, you will find the range from CAN $50 - $300 per night, the same can be said for Sidney where the big box hotels, like the Sidney Pier, charge extra for amenities where you will start at CAN $144, than add $5 for parking, $30 for your pet etc. <br />
The most affordable waterfront hotel in the Sidney Area, and the only one with a beach is The <a href="http://www.sidneywaterfrontinn.com">Sidney Waterfront Inn & Spa</a>, originally ‘The Hotel Sidney’ where a host of extras are included. With each stay <a href="http://www.sidneywaterfrontinn.com/packages.html">guests receive a CAN $25 Certificate</a> towards the <a href="http://www.oceanpalmspa.com/">Ocean Palm Spa</a> as well as other <a href="http://www.sidneywaterfrontinn.com/packages.html">discounts</a>. Room price s start at CAN $109 per nightAnonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12042155180443654976noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4189486177692164577.post-50352701629115581872010-12-31T13:31:00.000-08:002010-12-31T17:08:51.785-08:00YYJ, Sidney, BC New Years 2010<span style="font-family: arial;">It has been a wonderful year for the Saanich Peninsula, a plethora of successful events accompanied by another year of fantastic weather!</span><a style="font-family: arial;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.bc-tour.ca/images/blog/YYJ-Victoria-Airport-dec-31-2010.jpg"><img style="float: right; margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; cursor: pointer; width: 290px; height: 193px;" src="http://www.bc-tour.ca/images/blog/YYJ-Victoria-Airport-dec-31-2010.jpg" alt="YYJ Victoria Airport photo December 31 2010" border="0" /></a><br /><span style="font-family: arial;">December 31st 2010 and the sun was so bright sunglasses were the necessity of the day!</span><br /><a style="font-family: arial;" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://www.bc-tour.ca/images/blog/Sidney_BC_7AM_Dec-31-2010-4178.jpg"><img style="float: left; margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; cursor: pointer; width: 254px; height: 169px;" src="http://www.bc-tour.ca/images/blog/Sidney_BC_7AM_Dec-31-2010-4178.jpg" alt="Sidney BC 7am December 31st 2010" border="0" /></a><span style="font-family: arial;">Tonight there will be celebrating around town with</span><span style="color: rgb(102, 102, 102); font-family: arial;"> </span><a style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(102, 102, 102); font-family: arial;" href="http://www.bc-tour.ca/events-calendar.php#december" target="_blank">Mary Winspear</a><span style="font-weight: bold; color: rgb(51, 51, 51); font-family: arial;"> </span><span style="font-family: arial;">and the</span><span style="color: rgb(102, 102, 102); font-family: arial;"> </span><a style="color: rgb(102, 102, 102); font-family: arial;" href="http://www.bc-tour.ca/events-calendar.php#december" target="_blank">local recreation centre</a><span style="font-family: arial;"> having New Years Eve events and tomorrow, January 1st the annual Polar Bear swim off Lochside drive!
