The Victoria International Marina in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada has officially opened its class-leading facility to yacht owners, with the international sailing race, the Melges24 World Championship Regatta.
With all of the entrants berthed at the marina, competitors and their families appreciated the luxuries of Victoria International Marina’s reception lounge, dock service and, private captain and crew lounge. Victoria International Marina regatta guests also enjoyed one of the best views of the city’s spectacular harbour front and – as Victoria is at the gateway to the Inside Passage and the Pacific Marine Corridor – quickly discovered its ease of access to British Columbia’s scenic West Coast.
“We welcomed the world within the week of our opening, and our team delivered an experience that is unmatched on the West Coast,” says Craig Norris, CEO of the Victoria International Marina.
Effortlessly hosting such a prominent international event has officially catapulted the Victoria International Marina onto the world stage. This, combined with its idyllic Pacific Northwest location, has resulted in a high-demand for moorage bookings in its inaugural year. Yachters – with vessels 65’ to 175’ in length – hoping to use Victoria International Marina as a central-hub for exploring the pristine stretch of coastline between Victoria and Alaska, are urged to reserve in advance for the 2018 cruising season.
Daily moorage reservations include the same exclusive amenities and services as Victoria International Marina’s monthly and annual leases:
- 24/7 executive concierge service
