A Mystical Place


If you are looking for a place that is like no other on earth, please be sure to visit Long Beach between Ucluelet and Tofino on the West side of Vancouver Island. It is about 5.5 hours from Victoria but well worth the time to get there. It is truly a mystical place. Miles of sandy beaches open to the wild pacific. Big surf, incredible winter storms, and all that a rain forest has to offer. Meares Island is the home of the first major evironmental stand against the destruction of old growth forests. You need to go there to see monster trees. They are spectacular. There is a natural hot springs just north of Tofino. Walk on miles of beaches. Check out tide pools. Kayak in heaven. Surf. See Orcas and Grey whales in their natural habitat. Soak up the incredible scenery. So much to see and do. This is my favourite place in the world. Find out why.
