Pacific Rim National Park

From Victoria we headed up to Tofino a town just north of the Pac Rim NP our last National Park on this tour. Tofino is currently in drought and threatening to close the town down as they have absolutely no water. They are trucking water in from another town close by called Ucluelet. When we were there all was well though and we had a look around the (small) town and did a couple of shortish hikes around some of the trails in the Pac Rim Park.
We then moved from Tofino into the park itself and spent 2 nights staying in the Green Point Campground on the Long Beach (an 11km stretch of beach)
Beautiful white sands, waves and a rugged coast all make this a pretty impressive Park. The trees and islands just off of the coast are all windswept and jagged from the Pacific Ocean, they look cold and threatening but on a sunny day they are just spectacular. From here we headed back to Port Alberni and then up to Campbell River the self proclaimed Salmon Capital of Canada. Its a small city with little here that doesn't involve Salmon or fishing... We head to Port Hardy and Telegraph Cove for a bear watching trip in the next few days which we are looking forward to so much. No doubt an update will be in order.
