West Bay Walkway

Back in April I photographed this spot and dubbed it "Westsong Walkway." However, just around the corner there is a plaque identifying this as the "West Bay Walkway." The Township of Esquimalt says that the West Bay Walkway, "...connects Esquimalt (from Head Street at West Bay Marina) to downtown Victoria (Johnston Street Bridge)." Part of this beautiful shoreline walkway is in Victoria West and part of it is in Esquimalt. It seems the part that lies in Esquimalt is called the West Bay Walkway and the Vic West part of it is called the Westsong Walkway. Either that or it depends on the direction you are walking: if you are walking east from West Bay Marina then you are on the West Bay Walkway; if heading west from downtown, then you are on the Westsong Walkway. Oh well, what's in a name? A rose...etc.

Whatever it's called, it's beautiful. I'd love to stroll along that walkway.

I walked the entire walkway starting from the Johnson St. bridge last summer with my brother. It is a nice walk and the scenery is gorgeous.

The walkway changes names just like the roads!? Ha! Ha!

The light angle suggests to me this was taken in the peaceful early morning.
A great shot showing a beautiful and unique arbutus tree lit by the sun.
