North Saanich Neighbourhoods – Deep Cove

The Deep Cove neighbourhood sits at the edge of the protected Saanich Inlet in North Saanich, offering peaceful rural living and spectacular views of the Inlet and across to the Malahat region.  This is one of Greater Victoria’s most desirable rural neighbourhoods due to its many spacious, beautiful country and waterfront properties.
