Description:

I have been thinking of heading to Tofino for a while now, and with this beautiful spring sun and the lack of summer crowds (hopefully), I see no better time for going!

We can camp in Tofino or in Ucluelet (which is a pretty beach town around 30mins away from Tofino and is much cheaper), try surfing/take a surf lesson, explore all the beautiful beach/forest trails, maybe even take a water taxi to the nearby islands and of course eat at the legendary Tacofino. This is just a rough plan with some suggestions of things we could do, so please feel free to chime in if you know any cool places around Tofino or Ucluelet.

Getting to Tofino requires taking a car on the ferry from Horseshoe Bay (Vancouver) to Nanaimo (Departure Bay) or from Tsawwassen (Vancouver) to Duke Point (Nanaimo). Once in Nanaimo, the drive to Tofino is around 2h 50m. The drive is quite scenic with a lot of interesting places to stop at along the way.
