Land
of Endless Beaches and Incredible Sunsets
Tofino
is a picturesque pleasant rain-forest experience and is one of Vancouver
Island's 'must see' destinations. Wild Pacific surf pounding the wide
and sandy beaches, trees that appear to reach the skies and with beautiful
mountains that surround the waters of Clayoquot Sound with 270,000 hectares
of beaches, islands and ancient rainforests. Tofino has grown from a small fishing village to a popular tourist area
with scenic adventure tours available where you can witness Black Bears,
Bald Eagles, and other wildlife in their natural rainforest surroundings
amongst pristine mountain lakes, streams and waterfalls.
Long Beach is renowned as Canada’s surfing region, famous for the
longest stretch of surf-swept sand on Vancouver Island's west coast; this
spectacular beach attracts surfers & vacationers from all over the
world. Sandy beaches dominate the western side of the peninsula, while
the eastern side is more serene and the landscape is dominated by rainforest
splendour. Fishing is incredible with nearby rivers and lakes offering
great trout fishing. Kayakers will love the Tofino area with numerous
inlets and bays offer sheltered paddling, while the more experienced can
take to the ocean. Tofino's docks with local fishermen provide launching
points for numerous sea kayaking, whale watching, wildlife, hot springs
and cultural tours. Tofino offers a spectacular array of recreational
activities many of which will be an experience of a lifetime.
