Villa Superior

James Bay sits on Victoria’s southern peninsula, between the Inner Harbour and the Strait of Juan de Fuca, with coastal views and a mild, marine climate. Beacon Hill Park offers lawns, gardens, paths and a playground, while the Dallas Road waterfront path is a popular place to walk, run and cycle. The neighborhood’s heritage buildings and compact streets reflect its early history; the Royal BC Museum and the Parliament Buildings are close by at the edge of downtown. Local shops, cafés and restaurants cluster along Menzies Street and nearby streets, with more dining, galleries and nightlife a short walk away in the city centre. Buses connect James Bay with downtown and other parts of Victoria, and its relatively level streets make walking and cycling practical. For the James Bay neighborhood, the median rent is $2,100 per month, with a typical range of $1,649 to $4,500, based on 19 active listings.
