The warm sunlight softly illuminates the lush green leaves of the grape vines. A fresh ocean breeze rustles the vines. The vineyard geese's cacophony of honks echoes through the rows of vines. The soil is soft and rich. Life on a vineyard beside the sea is a wonderful thing.

Request NowThe Comox Valley, located mid-island on Vancouver Island’s east coast, is known for its stunning natural beauty, rich agricultural land, and access to both ocean and mountains. It includes the communities of Courtenay, Comox, and Cumberland, along with surrounding rural areas. As an adventure hub, Comox attracts travellers for mountain biking, skiing, ocean sports, hiking, business travel, tourism, and military operations.
The Comox coastal region is an emerging viticulture area on Vancouver Island, offering superior growing conditions compared to other parts of Canada. Despite its exceptional potential, land values remain undervalued compared to higher-risk vineyards in the Okanagan due to the limited farmland available.
The Comox Valley is home to the Canadian Forces Base and Comox Valley Airport (YQQ), Vancouver Island’s busiest airport. The region is easily accessible by road via Highway 19 and 1.5 hours from Nanaimo ferries from the mainland.
The Comox Valley boasts a diverse and resilient economy, with key employment sectors including tourism, agri-tourism, government services, retail trade, healthcare and social services, and accommodation, food, and beverage services. The region continues to expand, offering strong opportunities for investment in various industries.
The region has undergone 9% population growth in the past 5 years (compared to the Canadian average of 5%). Municipalities have been pro-development and pro-business with many new residential and commercial developments underway to prepare for continued regional growth. With a strong local food and wine scene, vibrant arts culture, and year-round recreational opportunities, the Comox Valley offers an exceptional quality of life.
The Comox Valley wine region is one of the northernmost in British Columbia and part of the Vancouver Island GI (Geographical Indication). Its cool coastal climate, influenced by the nearby Salish Sea and Comox Glacier, supports crisp, aromatic whites and delicate reds.
Key varietals include Gamay Noir, Siegerrebe, Pinot Gris, and Pinot Noir, well-suited to the region’s shorter growing season. Vineyards benefit from long summer daylight hours, ocean breezes, and well-draining glacial soils.
The region is known for small, family-run wineries focused on sustainable and hands-on viticulture. Sparkling wine is also a growing category here, taking advantage of the natural acidity preserved by the cooler climate. Though still emerging, Comox Valley wines are gaining recognition for their freshness, balance, and distinctive coastal character.
