B.C.’s Cosy Winter Cabins Provide Sanctuary

If ski boots and parkas aren’t your first choice for winter apparel, try slipping into a wetsuit and tackle surfing in Tofino on Vancouver Island’s west coast where winter storms that bring in epic rollers are celebrated with gusto. Here, you can beachcomb along wild, wide stretches of strand before warming yourself in a modern log cabin at Crystal Cove Beach Resort. An added bonus? Watching waves pound MacKenzie Beach from your hot tub.
