About

The Sooke Region Museum & Visitor Centre is on Phillips Road in Sooke, and it does double duty as the community's museum and a place for visitors to get their bearings.

The museum tells the story of the Sooke region, from its coastal landscape to the people and industries that built the community. Its indoor exhibits are being refreshed and will be renewed through to 2027, so some galleries may look different from one visit to the next.

There is still plenty to see outside. The grounds include outdoor exhibits such as the Forestry Path and the Servants Quarters. These can be explored at your own pace.

Inside, the gift and book shop carries local history titles and gifts, and staff can help with ideas for exploring Sooke and the west coast.

The museum is open Tuesday to Saturday from 9:30 am to 5 pm, with a 10 am start on Wednesdays. Admission is by donation, which makes it an easy stop for families and anyone passing through on the way to the beaches, trails and parks farther west.
