Malahat Highway Cameras Live: Hwy 1 Victoria to Mill Bay

Home · Highway cameras · Malahat

The Malahat is the mountain section of Highway 1 between Greater Victoria and Mill Bay, and the main road from Victoria to Nanaimo, Tofino and the rest of Vancouver Island. These are the province's own DriveBC cameras, south to north, with a second row for the drive back to Victoria.

Northbound: leaving Victoria

Southbound: back to Victoria

Live stills from DriveBC, the Province of British Columbia's highway cameras (Open Government Licence – British Columbia). The page requests new stills every two minutes while visible. A successful load does not prove a recent capture: check the timestamp in the image. Tap a camera to open it on DriveBC.

Before you drive the Malahat

• Winter tires are the law on signed B.C. highways from 1 October, and the Malahat is signed. It can be snowing at the summit while Victoria is only wet. Details on driving in B.C.
• If the Malahat is closed: BC Ferries runs a small car ferry between Brentwood Bay and Mill Bay that bypasses it. It carries few vehicles, so expect a wait when the highway is shut.
• Check the time stamped in each image. A frozen frame tells you nothing about the road now; open the camera on DriveBC if the time looks wrong.
