Tofino is a small town on the west coast of Vancouver Island.
It's roughly 2 hours from the closest ferry terminal and is the
Northern end of a long string of fantastic beaches. I have
visited a number of times -
Tofino
for May Long Weekend (2000),
Tofino
as a couple (2006),
Tofino
for a wedding (2022) and
Tofino
with my parents (2023). My parents were visiting again
this year and we lucked out and managed to get a place to stay for
the same time my parents were there. A place like tofino has
favorite activities but there is enough depth that you can also try
new things on every visit.
This trip we stayed at at a resort called Crystal Cove.
It's on Mackenzie beach which is book ended by a number of rocky
headlands which is perfect for looking in tide pools!
