Experience the wild beauty of Tofino and Ucluelet during Storm Watching season, where the rugged coastline meets the power of the Pacific. From cozy oceanfront lodges, watch towering waves crash against rocky shores as the wind hums through the rainforest. After the storm, stroll misty beaches, sip warm drinks by the fire, and feel the calm that follows nature’s raw display. On Vancouver Island’s west coast, every storm tells its own story - wild, untamed, and deeply beautiful.
