Mill Bay



This desirable seaside community located on the Saanich inlet is known for its beauty, tranquility and oceanfront access. The inlet is a unique glacially carved fjord, popular with scuba divers, and there is a small ferry that provides access from Mill Bay across the inlet to Brentwood bay on the Saanich peninsula.



Mill Bay is a sought after area due to it’s beauty and proximity to Victoria and is mostly made up of higher end single family homes on large lots with some luxury waterfront estates.
