It is known as a base for diving and snorkelling. Besides many smaller hotels it has three major ones - Le Meridian - Fisherman's Cove, the Berjaya Beau Vallon and the Coral Strand. Towards the north is also the newly renovated Northolme Hotel in the Glacis area. The Coral Strand has the island's only Indian Restaurant, "Mahek".

Attractions in the city include a clocktower modelled on that of Little Ben in London, England, the Courthouse, the Victoria Botanical Gardens, the Victoria National Museum of History, the Victoria Natural History Museum and the Sir Selwyn Selwyn-Clarke Market. The city is also home to the national stadium and a polytechnic institute, while the inner harbour lies immediately east of the town, around which tuna fishing and canning form a major local industry.
