Tap into Local

Find a refill station near you
Many of Victoria’s Biosphere Certified hotels participate in our Tap into Local program. These hotels invite travellers, regardless of where they stay, onto their properties to use their water bottle refill stations to enjoy our region’s fresh, safe-to-drink tap water, which comes from a protected 11,000-hectare watershed in the Sooke Hills. This is a great resource for on-the-go travellers who are looking to stay hydrated and minimize their use of single-use plastics. Participating Biosphere Certified hotels include Chateau Victoria Hotel & Suites, Hotel Grand Pacific, Huntingdon Hotel, Inn at Laurel Point, Magnolia Hotel & Spa, Oswego Hotel, and the Parkside Hotel & Spa.
