Shaw Centre for the Salish Sea

Sidney by the Sea is the perfect dream coastal town with Beacon Ave (main street) ending on the water front. On a clear day you can see Mount Baker or maybe even some Orcas swim by during the summer. Taking a stroll through the shops of Sidney is something I have always loved to do and have been doing for years. And while the street grows and changes, and businesses come and go Sidney always has some great options no matter what you are looking for (unless you are looking for big box stores then this isn't the place for you). In this guide I have rounded up my current must see boutiques of Sidney and just some of the reasons why I love them. There is also a TON more shops, cafes, and businesses on the street and just because they are not on this map doesn't mean don't check them out. This map is about shops I frequent my self and always recommend when asked, but the rest of town is pretty great too.
