Living on Salt Spring Island offers a lively mix of natural beauty, artisan culture, and small-town convenience. Known for its Saturday Market, farms, and creative community, the island attracts families, retirees, and newcomers seeking a vibrant lifestyle. Housing ranges from waterfront estates and rural acreages to village homes close to Ganges and Fulford Harbour. With more than 30 years on Vancouver Island, I track actual market value and market movement so you can see what daily life and housing on Salt Spring Island are really like.
