Tofino is a small town on the west coast of Vancouver Island where the Pacific Ocean meets the temperate rainforest. The town is known for its vibrant surf culture and long sandy beaches. I detected the waves rising from the salty ocean and felt the wind brushing through the thick trees. The area is also home to various marine mammals such as sea otters, seals, and whales. The First Nations people inhabited Tofino for thousands of years and still maintain their cultural significance and presence. The place is often visited by tourists interested in outdoor activities, including surfing, kayaking, hiking and camping. Compared to other natural wonders I have seen on my travels, Tofino is a unique blend of oceanic and terrestrial elements that I found quite fascinating.
