 Salt Spring Island is a destination retreat for people of all
descriptions and means. It is not unusual to find oneself
shopping alongside some of Hollywood's biggest stars at the
renowned
Ganges Saturday Market. Nor would it be unlikely
to be seated beside a free spirited youth existing from her
knapsack! The Island is home to a myriad of artisans of all
disciplines, organic food growers, retirees and those who
came for a visit and just never left. Several small airlines
operate scheduled and charted flights from various harbours
and airstrips.
BC Ferries offer several sailings a day to the
mainland and inter-island destinations and there are a
number of water taxis available for service.

GANGES is a perfect place to reprovision and no shopper will be disappointed with the variety and selection of goods to purchase or browse. Restaurants suitable to any taste and pocketbook are within walking distance from the harbour and live entertainment is featured during the summer months in an alfresco dining area that anyone moored on the village foreshore will be able to listen to.   Members at the Outstation Dock usually meet for a Happy Hour, Pot Luck Supper or Dine Out together. The complimentary Coffee and Muffins served every morning outside the MARINA OFFICE is a natural gathering place for RCYC Members and Marina Guests alike. It's a perfect meeting place to make new friends and renew acquaintances!
     
     

No wonder the RCYC Outstation is impressive!!!
