Thinking of making a move to The Comox Valley? Whether you're relocating from another part of B.C. or making a fresh start, summer offers the perfect conditions to make the transition smooth, exciting, and full of possibility.

☀️ 1. Courtenay Shines in the Summer

Courtenay comes alive in the summer. The city’s streets are buzzing with local farmers' markets, music festivals, and community events. With the mountains in the backdrop and the ocean just a short drive away, Courtenay offers the perfect balance of natural beauty and small-town charm.

Warm, sunny days and long evenings make it easy to explore neighborhoods, meet your new neighbours, and really get a feel for the local lifestyle.

🌲 2. Outdoor Lifestyle at Its Best

One of the biggest draws to Courtenay is its incredible access to the outdoors — and summer is when it truly shines. Here are just a few local gems to explore:

• Seal Bay Nature Park – Miles of shaded walking and biking trails through coastal forest

• Comox Marina & Goose Spit Beach – Ideal for kayaking, paddleboarding, and soaking up the sun

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 3. Family-Friendly and Fun

If you're moving with kids, summer is an ideal time. Families can explore parks, splash pads, and summer programs offered through the City of Courtenay. It also gives children time to adjust and settle into their new surroundings before the school year starts — making the transition much smoother.
