Sooke is an incorporated community situated on the southern tip of Vancouver Island, Canada. About a 45min drive from the city of Victoria (the capital of British Columbia), Sooke is near the entrance to Sooke Basin, a large ocean inlet that is often mistaken for a lake by first-time visitors. Most people who live along the edge of Sooke basin self-identify as Sooke residents, even though the District of Sooke's political boundary is limited to the Northern edge of Sooke Basin. All other residents are legally residents of Capital Regional District |- | align="center" style="font-size: 90%;" colspan="2" | Municipalities: Central Saanich | Colwood | Esquimalt | Highlands | Langford | Metchosin | North Saanich | Oak Bay | Saanich | Sidney | Sooke | Victoria | Juan de Fuca, British Columbia | Southern Gulf Islands | Saltspring Island |}
