Tofino

#2 off-the-beaten-path destination

British Columbia

You’re going to love Tofino

Located on Vancouver Island off Canada’s west coast, Tofino is a unique mash-up of wild natural scenery and laid-back coastal surf town with year-round surfing, plenty of ways to stay busy outdoors and a small population (less than 2,000 people call the area home).

Hacker tip

If you’re new to surfing, give it a try on Cox Bay. It’s calm with small waves and beautiful views of the coastline. Local surf instructors are ready to show you the ropes.
