West Coast Treasures: Tofino and Ucluelet

Everyones favourite West Coast town to visit, the not so hidden hidden gem, TOFINO and UCLUELET! Nestled on the west coast of Vancouver Island, Tofino and Ucluelet are full of active wildlife, rugged and raw coastal beauty, jaw dropping nature, laid back surfing vibes, and of course pure relaxation.

Making the 6-hour road trip from Victoria a few times a year, I have put together a list of everything you shouldn't miss while in these towns. I have personally been to all these places and would absolutely recommend. I hope you enjoy! A total of 40+ things on this map: Restaurants, beaches, hikes, breweries, shopping, things to see and do to help you fall in love with Tofino and Ucluelet.

While I have listed some of my personal favourite things to do, I highly recommend taking an afternoon to saunter through each of the villages and explore everything the towns have to offer. They're not big in size, but they certainly pack a punch in local flavour, unique gift shops, and sea-side goodness!  

Now let's get into it! 

Ucluelet:

Ucluelet Lighthouse Loop

Uculet is the lesser known Tofino. A Gorgeous, but sleepy, seaside town to relax, camp, hike, swim, surf, view sea life, eat, drink and be merry.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Hi! I'm Danielle and I am so excited you're here! My favourite thing to do is travel the world far and wide, spending my time uncovering hidden gems and experiencing the unique activities in every region. My second favourite thing to do is share my travels with you! The two things you need to know about me and my travels: I'm passionate about anything outdoors (hiking, camping, beaches, sunrises, mountains, you name it) and a food junkie (did someone say sweet tooth?). I truly put my heart and soul into building unique and fun Itineraries in the places I visit to experience the city/country to it's fullest! I hope you enjoy and if you have any questions let's chat!
