Site Map

Get down, get funky, get fly, get your groove on or just do your thing and chill with saucy intergalactic travelers in our magical mystery starship of style!

We are always looking for musicians, singers, DJs, people with music collections they want to inflict on a crowd, and assorted random performers. We pay in booze, food, cash and the adulation of the crowd. If you're interested, contact our bar manager using our online contact form, or drop by Ocean Island during our 6pm - 1am lounge hours (6pm to 12am on Sundays).

“Ocean Island is more than a hostel, it’s an experience - an experience akin to being kidnapped by 100 of your closest friends and cajoled into partying ‘til you explode.”
-Lonely Planet guidebook		 “This colourful and amicable hostel boasts a better lounge than most clubs... undoubtedly one of the finest urban hostels in Canada.”
-Let’s Go USA/Canada guidebook
