Salt Spring Island is the largest of the Gulf Islands, celebrated for its artistic community, farmers’ markets, and stunning natural landscapes. Living on Vancouver Island for more than 30 years, I have seen Salt Spring thrive as a place where creativity and coastal living are deeply connected. Its rolling farmland, beaches, and lively cultural scene create a spirit that is both welcoming and inspiring. People are drawn to the island’s unique blend of natural beauty, community, and artistic energy.
