Geschichte:
As most of lower Vancouver Island was populated by the members of the Songhees First Nations Tribe, in Oak Bay the most relative historical native areas were around Willows Beach.
After Victoria was settled by the first white explorers in the 1700's, it wasn't until 1906 that Oak Bay became an incorporated municipality. Oak Bay later developed following World War II into an area of high end homes “Uplands” and expanded with the construction of more modest homes in Willows (beach front), Estevan Village and South Oak Bay neighbourhoods.
