Canada Tour Long Beach Tofino 3xPIP

Through the rainforest to Long Beach on the Pacific Ocean to bathe your feet ;-)
The aptly named Long Beach in the Pacific Rim National Park Reserve joins the beaches of Florencia Bay, Wickaninnish, Combers and Schooner Cove to form a beach over 16 kilometres long on Vancouver Island. The beach not only has a long history as a surfing beach, but also a mystical atmosphere that is enhanced by the large amount of driftwood on the edge of the rainforest.
Grey and humpback whales can sometimes be spotted in the distance. The strong tides flood the beach and the landscape changes daily.
Canada Tour Chesterman Beach Tofino

At Chesterman Beach
When a Tofiter says he is going to the "beach", this is what he means.
The "W" or "M" shaped sandy beach is 2.7 kilometres long
Alluvial wood lines the shore, and at low tide you can spot starfish, anemones and other marine life.
When the wind blows, conditions are ideal for kite flying.

Tofino a place on the west coast Vancouver Island
Tofino owes its name to the Spanish cartographer, mathematician and naval officer Vicente Tofiño.
The population increases tenfold in summer and there are always bottlenecks in the drinking water supply.
The first contact between the First Nation and Europeans took place during an expedition in 1774.
In 1778 the next contact of the First Nation with Europeans, the English explorer James Cook on his third voyage to the South Seas sailed along the coast of Vancouver Island.
The present community developed from about 1890 onwards, and from 1909 onwards more European settlers and farmers, mostly of Norwegian, English and Scottish descent, moved into the nascent community.
Beginning in 1920, the residential school system was introduced when school attendance became compulsory throughout Canada. All Tla-o-qui-aht children between the ages of 7 and 15 were now required to attend these schools. This system was to become one of the mainstays of integration policy, but the violent conditions in these schools led to a wave of lawsuits. There were thousands of assaults on students and high mortality rates in these schools, which were mostly run by faith-based organizations, for which the Canadian government apologized in 2008 In 1983, the school in Tofino was one of the last of these schools in Canada to be closed.
PIP3: Tofino has been connected to the east coast of the island via a road link to Nanaimo since 1959. Regular buses run from Nanaimo and Victoria to Tofino and provide the town with mail. The mainland, around Vancouver, can be reached by ferries via Nanaimo, and the Seattle area by ferries via Victoria.
About 11 kilometers southeast of the is the Tofino/Long Beach Airport. The community's seaplane port is located in Tofino Harbor, protected by offshore islands.
The economic focus is on tourism
In summer, Tofino attracts surfers, hikers, campers and "whale watchers". Bear-watching" is also offered.
Worth mentioning for whale watchers is the annual Whale Festival in early March. This festival celebrates the arrival of the gray whales, which make a stop in Tofino on their way from Mexico to Alaska.

Port Hardy
Port Hardy is a small town in the north of Vancouver Island in the Canadian province of British Columbia.
It is the northernmost town on the island.The history of the First Nations, dating back about 8000 years, and the history of the so-called pioneers characterize the island
Finds of the settlement of Vancouver Island show artifacts that can be dated to about 6000 BC. Between 3000 BC and 500 AD, an obsidian blade culture prevailed, followed by maritime culture characterized by canoes and prey animals, namely seals and salmon.
the tribes, equipped with rifles through the fur trade with the Europeans, became successful traders and slave hunters, extending their raids as far north as Washington.
From the 1950s until 1991, the Royal Canadian Air Force maintained a radar station near the town.
Despite a small population and surrounding wilderness, Port Hardy has a small-town feel. It offers enough services, so there is a visitor as well as a shopping center and supermarkets, 24-hour gas stations, clothing and art stores, a gymnasium, car dealers, bank branches, a library, churches, bars and restaurants and smaller stores. A hospital, fire station and ambulance, and police station make up the public services.
