Tofino is a small town at the end of a peninsula jutting off the west coast of Vancouver Island. Though much of Vancouver Island is rugged, untouched wilderness, Tofino is a charming tourist destination where many travelers base their stay. The town sits on a beautiful harbor and features independently owned shops and eateries. It is surrounded by natural wonders waiting to be explored. Take a hike along Tonquin Park or the boardwalks that wind through the thick groves of some of Canada’s oldest trees. Get out on the water by taking a whale watching tour or a kayaking tour around Clayoquot Sound. Tofino is also known for its excellent surfing, and you can catch a wave any time of the year.
