And we are back to Tofino once again, for our sixth visit to the area. Our latest visit was over the Thanksgiving long weekend this past October and the weather was pretty favorable over those three days.

There are no major hotel chains in Tofino area with one single Best Western Plus being the exception. Previously the hotel was old and worn, but it has been completely renovated during COVID and is now brand new.
Sunsets over Pacific Ocean are always beautiful.
Tofino has seen loads of development during the past decade with lots of holiday homes having been built. Today, there is a very active cafe and restaurant scene in town, especially during the summer season.
Tofino harbour is a starting place to many outdoors adventures.
Chesterman Beach is one of the many beaches in the area and very popular with surfers that flock to Tofino. The only downside is paid parking even in the off-season.
One of the days was cloudy, so we decided to visit Ucluelet Aquarium. It's a tiny place with pretty expensive entry price, but also plenty of fun for small kids (that get in for free).
One only needs 30 minutes to see the whole place, but kids will still find it a fun visit.
In the afternoon the sky did clear and the sun came out.
All in all, it was another relaxing visit to the area, which is one of our favorite places on the west coast.
