There are 48 regional, provincial and federal parks in Greater Victoria, totaling more than 7,600 hectares (22,724 acres). Greater Victoria covers an area of 695 square kilometres (432 square miles).The area consists of rolling lowlands, out of which granite rises to heights of up to 300 metres (985 feet). Its latitude is about the same as Dijon, France Zurich, Switzerland Budapest, Hungary and Rostov, Russia in the northern hemisphere and the southern end of New Zealand in the southern hemisphere. It lies at 123 degrees 22' west longitude, and 48 degrees 25' north latitude.
It is separated from Vancouver, B.C. It stretches 500 kilometres (320 miles) southeast to northwest with an area of 3,175,000 hectares (9,493,171 acres) and 3,460 kilometres (2,150 miles) of coastline. In parts of Victoria's north and west shorelines, waves cut into layers of glacial till and delta material to produce cliffs, spits and lagoons.The largest island off the west coast of North America, Vancouver Island is located next to the mainland coast of British Columbia and the north shore of Washington State's Olympic Peninsula.Vancouver Island is actually closer to the United States than mainland Canada and occupies an area roughly the size of Holland.
The open Pacific Ocean allows for storm watching while expanses of sandy beaches attract visitors from around the world. Along its southern half, the terrain is so rugged that the Malahat Mountain section of the Island Highway climbs to an elevation of more than 335 metres (1,099 feet) above the inlet's waters.The west coast of the island is sprinkled with small communities, notably Ucluelet and Tofino, located on either side of the world-renowned Pacific Rim National Park. The Saanich Inlet in the Victoria area is one of the few fjord inlets on Vancouver Island's east coast. The Alberni Inlet cuts more than halfway through the island ending at the community of Port Alberni.
