Tofino

Someone from work is going to Tofino this weekend, so I wrote up a list of my favourite things in and around Tofino.

 

Wild Pacific Trail in Ucluelet – Lighthouse Loop

Beautiful 45 minute trail with a lighthouse and crashing waves.

Boat trip to Hot Springs Cove

Boat trip to an island. 30 minute board walk through an old growth forest to natural hot springs pools in the rocks beside the ocean.  Good chance of seeing whales on the boat trip.  It’s more expensive, but when are going back to Tofino?

Trilogy Fish Co - Tofino

Great fresh, locally caught seafood, including oysters

Sobo restaurant – Tofino

Phenomenal food.  Best to go at lunch when it’s a bit cheaper.

Or you could spend the whole time surfing.
