Salt Spring Island, BC, is in for a stretch of sunny and warm weather to start the week, but residents should get ready for a shift towards cloudier and rainier skies by the weekend. According to The Weather Network, Monday through Thursday will be mostly clear, making it a great time to get outside before conditions change.
Tuesday, June 2, is set to be the warmest day with a high of 24°C and only a 10% chance of rain. That lines up perfectly with the Salt Spring Tuesday Farmers’ Market, which runs from 1:30 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. at Centennial Park in Ganges. The market, which is food-focused, continues every Tuesday through October 27, 2026.
Boating conditions in the Strait of Georgia will be calm early in the week. Environment Canada reports northwest winds of 10 to 20 knots on Monday, easing by Tuesday morning before shifting to southeasterly 5 to 15 knots later in the day.
The weather starts to turn on Friday, June 5. Light rain is expected with a high of 13°C, a 60% chance of precipitation, and 2 to 4 millimetres of rain possible. The weekend looks to stay unsettled, so outdoor plans later in the week may need a backup option or at least rain gear.
This pattern is not unusual for early June on the Southern Gulf Islands, as the region can still see unsettled spring-like weather before the typically drier summer months. For now, residents and visitors can make the most of the sunny start while it lasts.
