Getting to Cowichan

Cowichan is most easily accessed by Highway 1, which runs through the region, connecting Victoria to Nanaimo. For those flying to Vancouver Island, you can choose to fly into Victoria (YYC) or Nanaimo (YCD), and then rent a car to reach Cowichan.

For those visiting by water, there are a number of marinas along the shores of Cowichan communities, from Mill Bay to Ladysmith, that can welcome visiting boaters.
