The Saturday Market has become well known beyond Salt Spring’s shores. But wait, there’s more…
Beginning this year, the Tuesday Food Market is held from 3pm to 7pm, June to October at Centennial Park in Ganges.
Salt Spring Traffic Sign
Traffic can get pretty hectic on Salt Spring Island in the summer. Good thing we’ve got the signage.
Chocolate Island Outhouse
And there it sits. A spectacular little hand crafted outhouse. On Chocolate Island in Ganges Harbour. With a fabulous western view of the shell beach and islands into Ganges. Who knew?

Update, June 27 from Roz:
Yes, it was built by Micah Booy. He spends a lot of time on Third Sister Island, & became disgusted by the way people pooped all over the place, especially as the island is private, but the owner, instead of putting up No Trespassing signs, lets everyone go there, hang out on Chocolate Beach, & walk along the path that goes from one end of the island to the other. To thank him, Micah decided to remedy the situation, &, with considerable effort, dug a hole, & built that exquisite outhouse.
First, he asked my husband, Patrick, who has built several outhouses on the island with those distinctive proportions, if he could use his design. (Mica is a friend of Patrick’s son). When Patrick first saw what Micah had done, he said, “He has surpassed the master!”
Vision Limited
Came across this Salt Spring shot while looking for a client’s images from a few years ago. The “vision limited” sign made me smile again. Hopefully you did too.
Ocean View
No matter where you are on the ocean, there’s land below. Something I found out sailing the waters around Salt Spring.
Today, the clear water reflections are magnificent. And it’s obvious where the bottom is.
