Staying in Canada in Winter
If you had to stay in Canada in the winter where would one find the mildest weather and place where snowbirds go.
Forum Discussion
- Victoria has the mildest climate in Canada. The further up Vancouver Island you go, the more chance of snow and more rain. Victoria can also be windy. There are RV places open all year there.
- I'd vote for the gorgeous Okanagan Valley area, British Columbia.
- NEVER , not even if you pay me big bucks.
- There ARE open RV Pks on Vancouver Island - all year - one within 1/2 mile of me.
bbt - Victoria to Courtenay. Not much different in temp or rain up east side of island. Mountains from west join east at Campbell River leading to more rain. Osoyoos is hotter in summer but colder in winter. Vancouver rains more.
- Another vote for Parksville. Nanoose Bay can be a bit milder still, but I don't think there's much in the way of RV parks there.
- I live in Campbell River on Vancouver Island and there are lots of people full timing in RV's here. But if you want the very best weather, choose Parksville or Qualicum Beach on Vancouver Island.
It is marginally warmer and considerably less precipitation there than south of Nanaimo. - Vancouver Island.
