A dramatic West Coast peninsula on the extreme southwestern tip of Vancouver Island, within the Silver Spray lands, between Moonlight Bay and Emerald Beach, featuring 2,800 feet of surf and sunset oceanfront with panoramic views to the east, south and west. The solid rock foreshore of Possession Point rises 65 feet above the sea, offering natural tsunami protection and 'incomparable oceanfront setting and views'.
From this lofty vantage point the lush shoreline of the adjacent Wilderness Park extends as far as the eye can see, preserving 10 km of south facing virgin oceanfront, pristine pocket beaches, abundant tidal pools, a large pelagic cormorant roost, ancient native petroglyphs and 50 km of nature trails winding through a temperate rainforest that is three and a half times larger than Vancouver's Stanley Park.
At over 3,500-acres, this the largest waterfront park in the entire Victoria Capital Regional District. Tourism BC advertises the 6 hour one-way hike along its scenic 'Coast Trail' as 'one of the premier day hikes in Canada'.
The waters surrounding Possession Point offer world-class salmon fishing, whale watching, boating, kayaking and sailing. The Cousteau Society has rated the crystal clear water 'excellent' for diving.
Although it is a true rural sanctuary, nestled at the end of a quiet country road, it is only 45 minutes to all Victoria's old world charm, the international airport and the ferry terminal, and half that to shopping centres, championship golf courses, hospitals, restaurants and theatres in the Western Communities of Greater Victoria.
Possession Point's 17-acres are so exceptional that they narrowly escaped annexation into the adjoining Wilderness Park. It required six years of protracted negotiations to achieve rezoning for a versatile assortment of oceanfront villas, hillside chalets, a private residence club, a lodge, spa, marine docks and an eco-tourism destination resort.
In 2012, management intends to commence advertising a mix of oceanfront villas and private residence club suites in buildings architecturally designed to maximize the private front-row wilderness waterfront experience. These will be tailored to suit the market, offering a full variety of oceanfront suites varying from 800 to 2500 sq. ft. in size.
