   I second the recommendation of the BC provincial museum.  It's quite
good.  Another thing worth seeing is the Butchart Gardens, near Victoria. 
Plan on seeing them in the daytime and staying after dark (the gardens are
lit after nightfall).  Very romantic.  In the summer on weekends there are
fireworks over the gardens at night.  Check with them to find out when
they start (time and day).
