Transportation: Victoria's Airport, YYJ
From the airport, the best way into town is either by taxi (average cost $40-45), shuttle bus ($13 one-way), or by rent-a-car (varies). If you are planning to stay in Victoria itself, everything is close together and a short walk from the core. If you want to see other parts of Vancouver Island, or visit the various beaches and the Gulf Islands, then a car might be a good idea. Airport parking costs $2 for short term parking (up to 2 hours), or $1 per hour with a $15 maximium in the daily lot (which you can pay by cash or credit card on exit). There is also a long term lot where the cost is $15 per day for first 4 days and $7 per day thereafter. 
For those on a budget, you can (almost) take public transit: Catch the Airport
Shuttle from the Airport to BC Transit's McTavish Park and Ride for $2.00.
From there you can catch the "70" bus, which will take you downtown.
