CBCV-FM is a Canadian radio station, which broadcasts the programming of the CBC Radio One network in Victoria, British Columbia and throughout Vancouver Island and the Southern Gulf Islands. It also reaches out to parts of Washington (state) north of Everett, Washington, but is harder to listen to because of KSER in Snohomish County on 90.7 MHz.

It was the most listened to radio station in the Victoria Market in the Spring 2013 BBM Ratings.

The station was licensed by the Canadian Radio-Television and Telecommunications Commission in 1997, and was launched in 1998. At the same time, the station was licensed to add a rebroadcaster at Metchosin, and took over 13 existing rebroadcasters of Vancouver's CBU.
