Fisherman’s Wharf Park

    Overlooking the wharf and on the new Harbour Pathway, the park is at Erie and St. Lawrence. A rehabilitated land project, this newly formed park today boasts a rain garden which serves to filter much of the storm drain waters of James Bay, a public herb garden, a well-used children’s playground, a ‘beach’, a playing field for flying a kite or tossing a frisbee, and areas where park-users can sit on a bench or the grass and read a book.

Next to the park you’ll find the actual wharf that the park was named for.  It is a ‘must-see’ for anyone visiting Victoria!

Fisherman’s Wharf Location

 

This unique marine location offers food kiosks, interesting shops and eco-tour adventures in the heart of the working harbour. You can wander along the docks with your lunch, buy seafood fresh off the boat, view moored pleasure vessels and float homes, and watch as fishing vessels unload their day’s catch.

One of the best (and most fun) things to do at Fisherman’s Wharf is to feed the resident seals!  They’re used to people and will usually come looking for a handout.  Food (fish) for them can be bought at a small fish store located at the wharf.

One of the many ‘moocher’ seals!

Be careful though of the seagulls as they will try to steal the fish, and also don’t get your hands too close to the seals mouth when feeding them.
