Fishing Pier Sidney By the Sea


Just 20 minutes north of Victoria is the quaint "Sidney By the Sea". It is a great little town and worth a visit by guest checking out greater Victoria. The picture above is of the fishing pier. This pier juts far enough out into the ocean current to permit catching salmon and other marine fish. Many locals also drop prawn traps from the pier. It is also a great place to visit when you do the waterfront walk in Sidney. There are great views of Sidney Spit and James Island from the pier. This pier was built by the generosity of residents from all over the region. The names of donors are written on small walls on the way to the pier. It was truly a great idea and leaves a great legacy. Check it out.
