About Courtenay

The city of Courtenay, with a population of 55,213, is the urban, business and cultural hub of the Comox Valley. It is located on the central east coast of Vancouver Island. Boasting low-rise buildings, flower-filled streets and genuine friendliness, Courtenay feels more like a village than a city. An abundance of activities offered include golfing, hiking, mountain biking, walking tours, fossil-hunting and exploring spectacular gardens, shops, restaurants, galleries, and entertainment. The abundance of the Comox Valley has much do to with shaping Courtenay. After enjoying a morning at the Saturday Comox Valley Farmers' Market you can drive out to the award-winning Beaufort Winery for a tasting. This mid-island gem is definitely worth a look!
