9. Sidney

2372 Beacon Ave, Sidney, BC  (Map)

SIDNEY.   The little town of Sidney is charming, with its seaside ambience and friendly residents. Its nickname is "Booktown," and there's a very good reason for that: ten independently owned book stores, each with its own character and specialty. You can find book stores devoted to certain subjects: nautical history, military, gardening and crafting, even books for children. There are antiquarian book shops and gently used book shops and a full-service new book shop. Start on Beacon Avenue at Third Street, and work your way east – all the shops are either right on Beacon or just off it. Individual shops hours vary.
