    Beautiful bay and Beach area for any Tofino visitor and localites alike. If you're lucky, you will also be able to spot bald eagles either perched atop the spruces or flying around the area. There are easy hikes on both sides of the bay which can offer amazing sunset views and sights of surfers doing their bit in the pristine waters. There are resorts around the beach and these look like definite luxury spots for visitors.
