Food, adventure, fun…

Tofino is one of the most beautiful spots to visit on the west coast but it doesn’t stop there. The west coast cuisine is memorable experience here too with a display of wild seafood. Tacofino’s bus is one of the most talked about places in town for lunch with its fish (ling cod) tacos. Red Can Gourmet is not too pricy and a fine meal. The Shelter is a great place for a romantic date with clams, mussels, salmon, halibut and Dungeness crab as a few of the menu items. Wildside grill has more than just seafood and is a great stop after a day on the beach. Wolf in the fog is Tofino’s newest fine cuisine and has been mentioned in many well known publications.

Tofino and more…

Tofino sits on the north end of a peninsula and about 35 mins at the south end sits the town of Ucluelet. Ucluelet is known as a fishing hotspot on the coast, but it also has the Wild Pacific Trail, the top ranked thing to see by Trip Advisor on the west coast of Vancouver Island. The Wild Pacifc trail is starting to get a lot of attention from visitors, but it is also a place where locals like to do an early morning jog when there is almost no traffic.

Pacific Rim National Park

Pacific Rim National Park is one of the favorite vacation spots along the west coast of British Columbia and starts about 10 mins outside of Tofino. There are three regions: Long Beach, The Broken Group, and the West Coast Trail. The park is well known for its lush forests and rugged coastline. The park was formed among some controversy as people used to camp, live and drive on the beach. When it became a national park everything was cleaned up and you really have no idea what this same area used to be like 40 years ago. Ask any of the old timers here and they may tell you a few interesting stories!
