Welcome to Tofino
in Tla-o-qui-aht territory
Set amongst the beaches, rainforest and islands off the tip of the Esowista Peninsula, you’ll find n̓ačiqs, also known as Tofino, on Vancouver Island’s rugged west coast.
Tofino invites you to experience less — a place where quieter moments and slower rhythms let you connect more deeply with the world around you. Here, the everyday takes on new meaning. Enjoy the solitude of a sunrise beach walk, the calm of a bike ride through town, the freshness of seafood harvested nearby, and the peacefulness of a surf check with your morning coffee.
