Why Visit

Where the Ocean Sets the Pace

Tofino, British Columbia’s misty ocean waves and untamed natural beauty tend to enthrall visitors who come on vacation but find it hard to return. Tofino is situated at the very end of the Pacific Rim Highway on the most westerly driveable portion of Vancouver Island, and getting there surely requires some work. That’s the idea. It is a purposeful, deliberate decision to come here in order to slow down and refuel. The final stretch of the road, which winds through mossy trees, opens to views of the magnificent Cox Bay. During your adventure Tofino wildlife tours, this is the area that is surrounded by the Pacific Sands Beach Resort, a healing resort that will leave you feeling renewed.

Top Things to Do

Surfing Experiences like no other

Visitors to Tofino are greeted by those melancholy Pacific waves, which also assist them in taking a deep breath and establishing a sense of place. You can sense the ocean current’s ebb and flow along the 35 km of beaches and shoreline. One of the purest ways to decompress and re-establish a connection with nature is to go surfing or paddleboarding.

Meares Island visit

Tofino Kayak Tours can easily include a visit to Meares Island. It is visible across Clayoquot Sound and reachable by kayak or water taxi from the Tofino shoreline. It was the scene of a significant anti-logging demonstration in 1984 that sparked the current environmental movement in the area. Consequently, it keeps certain old trees alive, such as a 1500-year-old red cedar known as the “Hanging Garden,” which would have been a sapling shortly after the fall of the Roman Empire.
