French Beach near Victoria B.C. Canada

This beach provided a peaceful setting on a warm winter day. Only an hours drive from downtown Victoria, French beach Provincial Park is a great place for anyone to spend an afternoon picnicing, strolling along a pebble beach or just soaking up the westcoast sun.

Mmm, have lived here all my adult life and have wondered the beaches of the southern island for all of them.

I have never seen a turd wash up on the beach, although have spotted a few condoms and tampon applicators.

I'm sure as we move forward in time these will be some of the issues we takle, but until then, enjoy the area, it's incredible.

Thanks for video, have sat there many times myself enjoying the weather and view.

Wow why are you so obsessed with victoria? ALl you do is comment on victoria vids all day? victoria population alone is almost that of nfld there must be something pretty dam good about it. East coast is shite compared to west coast.. Victoria one of the most beautiful cities in canada and yes there is many homeless. HAving the warmest climate in Canada means all the bums from across canada make there way over for the fair winters outdoors..USe your head and quit knocking canadas best city!

...I love Vancouver island!

Ahhh, Newfoundland... from paradise on the furthest west coast to paradise on the furthest east coast. Are there any people more friendly and accommodating that the Newfoundlanders, love those people. I moved to Victoria almost 10 years ago now after living all over the world. Finally found my Utopia.

[Normalman50]

Hello Shamrock - We are all products of our environment, and most people find ways to exist where we are born, such as in Newfoundland, which has been the home of the minimum wage and unemployment for generations. If I was born in Victoria I'd most likely learned how to survive there. Every young person who has replied to me has indicated that there are few opportunities available to them on the island, and plan to leave after graduation.

[shamrock7474]

Well, I'm glad you've moved on.... I wish we could just keep this island a secret from everyone. Way too many people with too much money moving here now and causing it to become a playground for the rich. Still, I've been all over the world and I could never live anywhere else. This is pure paradise.

My wife and I moved out of Victoria three years ago, we lived on Quadra close to downtown.  We thought it would be a great place to retire, but all the homeless people and bottle collectors was a bit depressing. The car theft problems too. I knew about the cruse ship poop sucking because I was a bus driver who took the ships passengers on scenic tours. Yes, I did make some friends there, but they are products of their depressed environment, and do not realize there is more prosperity elsewhere.
