Community Information

Located on the east coast of Vancouver Island, the Comox Valley comprises the City of Courtenay, the Town of Comox, the Village of Cumberland, and surrounding rural areas from Fanny Bay to Black Creek, including Hornby and Denman Islands. Known as one of the Island’s best-kept secrets, it offers majestic mountains, rushing rivers, lush rainforests, and shimmering seas, making it attractive for those seeking variety and a high quality of life with affordable housing. The area is ideal for families, with a strong community spirit and rapid growth. Educational facilities range from elementary to degree programs at North Island College.

The region enjoys mild winters and warm, dry summers. It hosts over 50 annual festivals, and the Sid Williams Theatre offers year-round performing arts. For shopping and dining, 5th Street in Courtenay and local farmers markets are popular. The local food scene is renowned.

Outdoor enthusiasts can enjoy Mount Washington Ski Resort (1700 acres of terrain) just 30 minutes away, world-class mountain biking trails in Cumberland, and Tofino, a beautiful west coast community, only 2.5 hours away. Weekend activities include salmon fishing, paddleboarding at Goose Spit or Comox Lake, river tubing, and visiting local microbreweries.

The physician community is welcoming and collegial, with 19 full-service medical clinics, two walk-in clinics, and a military base clinic. The area is served by the Island Health-run Comox Valley Hospital, a 146-bed acute care facility.
