The showcase was small but it had really thought out mannequins dressed up as civilians and military personnel back in the day. The library layout was comfortable and you can probably sit hours there doing your research if you needed to. Mock area for airplane displays as well.

I like air planes. I like museums. I really like it when the two come together and the Comox Air…read moreForce Museum is a great example of just that. While the Comox museum may not rival the Smithsonian Air & Space museum, it does have an excellent collection of artifacts and exhibits that are well maintained and organized in a coherent and thoughtful manner. Admission is by donation, which makes the museum a cost-effective way to entertain your family while still learning about Canadian history. Along with the main exhibit hall, the museum maintains a heritage air park where you're able to get up close to vintage aircraft. The staff were very friendly and helpful, and even provided me with batteries for free when my camera unexpectedly died. I would have liked to spend more time at the museum however my girlfriend's enthusiasm for aviation history had worn out, and we had other Canada Day activities to take in.

I only had a limited amount of time in the area and wanted to find a boutique with locally made artisan pieces from and was lucky to find this one in one of the travel guides at my hotel. I picked up a few different items, a small bird made from re-purposed metal, a lovely necklace, a stylish cell phone holder, and some special sea salt. So much fun. I'll be back for sure the next time I'm in the area!

We happened to be there on such a beautiful day, which made the experience even more enjoyable. We ended up taking our seats in the gazebo, and our wine tasting guide invited us inside to check out the charcuterie boards they had prepared and wrapped in the fridge. They also offered homemade salmon pâté and olive tapenade as part of the selection. Once we were settled in and enjoying our boards, the tasting began. Our host was incredibly knowledgeable about both the wines and the winery itself. She was warm, attentive, and took excellent care of us throughout the experience. I've visited several wineries in Northern California, and this one was every bit as lovely. I would definitely recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing and memorable wine tasting experience.

As soon as we walked into Beaufort Vineyard and Estate. Maddie greeted us. She was very warm and welcoming! As you walk in the door you can see the wines being made. Which, makes you want to dive right into a tasting. The whole place inside was rustic and cute! I loved everything about it! We were told that we could sit wherever we wanted. I chose to sit outside. Maddie, guided us throughout our tasting. She was super sweet and very knowledgeable! I really enjoyed talking with her throughout my tasting. She was unbelievably passionate about Beaufort Vineyard and Estate. She was able to answer all of my questions which impressed me! I enjoyed Ortega, Borealis, Pinot Noir Rosé, and the Foch Nouveau for my tasting. Which, was about 1oz pours. They were all unique one of a kind wines that were bright, light, and Summery! You could taste that they were small batch wines that were artfully crafted. The ambiance outside was sublime! We had a view of the island and of the beautiful vines! A truly unforgettable experience that I'll take with me for the rest of my life. I would suggest this wonderful experience to anyone and everyone! I will continue to share my experiences and will tell people to come here! Beaufort Vineyard and Estate is Vancouver Island's first Certified Organic vineyard. This beautiful Estate sits on 18 acres. They have 18 different varieties of grapes growing. Which, receive on average only 700 sunlight hours. They produce small batch, handcrafted wines. The cool, coastal climate produces bright, balanced, light bodied white wines and fruit forward light bodied reds. They are also, the Furthest North Estate on the island! You simply must experience it for yourself!

The tasting staff are friendly and warm and the wines sweet and cool. If you enjoy berry wines or wine in general try Coastal Black out. They also have annual functions if you look on the webpage.
