Oak Bay is a small municipality of just 10.5 km², located about 3km from downtown Victoria. The municipality is made up of many quiet neighbourhoods, with both intimate back laneways for quiet exploration and a spectacular scenic seaside route extending along Beach Drive.  There are also many small walking paths connecting neighbourhoods.

The main Village area is situated on Oak Bay Ave, with secondary retail centres located on Estevan Ave, Cadboro Bay Road, and Foul Bay Road. Many other small commercial pockets exist throughout the community, all within easy walking or cycling distance of local homes.

The University of Victoria is located at the Northern end of Oak Bay, with entrance to the campus at the corner of Henderson and Cedar Hill X Roads.
