Driving to Tofino, BC, is usually the easiest option ’cause it’s hard to get around once there without a car. Side stops include Qualicum Beach, Coombs, Port Alberni, Dellas Cafe, Sprout Lake, Kennedy River Rest Stop and Kennedy Lake, part of the Pacific Rim and Parks Canada.

Taylor River for rest and a rinse.

Taylor River is a great spot to relax and rinse, then later in the trip Rathtrevor Beach Campground usually has availability where it’s otherwise hard to find if you’d like to try and extend your stay.
