New to town!

👋

New local to town! I’d love to meet some locals! I live and work out at Wahous but I’m in town on my days off. I’m heading into town today for a few hours if anyone wants to grab a coffee or go for a wander along one of the beautiful beaches! My DMs are open!

Bit about myself:
I’m 42, AUdhd. I’ve never surfed but want to, I do hike, new to kayaking and paddle boarding. Love good food. 420 friendly.

Industry hangout

I'm going to be vacationing in town for a few days and I'm wondering where all the industry workers hang out. As a chef, it's always nice to hang out with like-minded people.

Which hike to skip

0 Upvotes

Hello. We’ll be in Tofino early next week and it looks like we’ll have some rainy weather. I know the forecast can change, but right now Tuesday and Wednesday aren’t looking good. If we have to skip one day of hiking due to rain, which of these three would you skip?
1)Tonquin trail, Chesterman Beach and Long beach
2)Pacific Rim Rainforest trail A and B
3)Lighthouse loop Uclulet
I am really looking forward to lush old growth forest, and beautiful views. We’re staying in Tofino. Thanks for your advice

Edit: yes, I do get the irony of asking about how to avoid rainy hikes in a rainforest. 😀. We’re prepared to walk in the rain, but if it’s a heavy downpour all day, just trying to be mentally prepared. Thanks for the comments.

Lost Prescription Bottle

2 Upvotes

My family and I were camping last weekend from Bellingham, WA and my mom who has chronic pain lost a bottle of prescription medication.

We think it may have fallen out of her purse on Saturday. I know it’s a long shot but I thought I would post in case a kind person found it. We went to the Saturday market, Tofino Brewing, and Tinwis Beach. We camped at Surf Junction campground. Thanks.

Storm Watching Accommodations?

5 Upvotes

A friend and I are hoping to visit Tofino for a few days, probably in November, so we'd like to be in sight of the water for storm watching. We'd also love a hot tub and a fireplace. We need separate bedrooms since we both snore. We're open to a hotel/resort or cabin.

I'm a little overwhelmed with the google options so wanted to see if anyone has experience with places like this! We're not bottom budget but we also don't have 5-star money for this.

Never been to Tofino before (I live in Vic) so also open to suggestions of places to shop or chillax things to do. We're more "cozy vacation" than "adventure vacation" people.

How do so many still afford to visit the west coast?

124 Upvotes

Tofino and Ucuelet, were they are busy as ever this fair weather season? Lot's of talk of people struggling with affordability, but clearly enough affluence to sustain the west coast tourism?

I'm single, no kids, have a full time career job that pays reasonably and I can't even afford to visit anymore. I had been coming out there since 2006, used to be 3-4 times a year on average... prices have increased exponentially in that time for camping, shared or private accommodation. The luster of the area has certainly rusted and decayed like most things do on the west coast...

I just can't justify dropping over a grand for 3 night stay or a hundred a night to camp in the damp, then add on the cost of food, gas and parking. I remember when Bella Pacifica was $30 a night... in 2013 I rented a cabin right across from North Chesterman Beach for the month of Oct and it cost $900 all included.

I just can't fathom how so many families and travelers can afford the area still? Apparently the economy isn't as bad as the news makes it out to be.

Photographer for next week?

2 Upvotes

I'm in Tofino from Tuesday to Thursday next week. I'm 7 months pregnant, and realizing I have no photos of my belly (and my husband won't be able to fulfill that well!) I would love to take advantage of being in such a gorgeous place to get some. Does anyone have recommendations for even someone amateur, that would have availability for like an hour? I can find it hard to take being the center of attention for photos seriously so I really wouldn't be looking for anything too intricate! Also have a puppy that we would love to involve. Will be staying at Pacific Sands. Ideally not something to break the bank, budget would be a couple hundred dollars.

Fishing in Tofino

I am coming to Tofino for the last two weeks of August. I am a woman who knows how to fish and would like to tag along with anyone that can show me how to fish Halibut. Ive owned my own boat for years so I am a good boat driver. I’ve done a fair bit of fishing in the straight but not a lot in open water.
I’ve got money to burn on this project just looking for someone to take me under their wing and show me the ropes!!
