Things To Do

Activities & Adventures

Between sea, surf, and shore there are enough year-round adventures in Tofino to leave you longing for more. Walk along the trails and boardwalks that weave through the rainforest, or retreat to private floating docks for saunas and cold plunges. Dive into the surf with an instructor for adventures by paddle and board. Cycle along the ʔapsčiik t̓ašii Multi-Use Path from Tofino to Ucluelet, or take it easy and cruise the beach. Head to the ocean on a fishing excursion or whale-watching trip and take to the sky on a seaplane sightseeing trip or remote guided hike to panoramic views of Clayoquot Sound.
