For the golf enthusiast, the Sooke area offers excellent golf greens in natural surroundings.
In particular, the Olympic View Championship Golf Course, located in a breathtaking park-like setting at a 35 minute drive from Sooke, ranks among the top 35 greens in Canada.
Relatively new to Vancouver Island is the Bear Mountain Golf and Country Club, located at a 25 minute drive. The course, opened in 2003, was designed by renowned course designer Jack Nicklaus and his son Steve, and has been voted the #1 new course in Western Canada, and the #4 in all of Canada.
