Tofino makes for the perfect winter getaway and here's how you can win a trip for two (CONTEST)

With epic beaches, surf culture, and views that stun, n̓ačiqs / Tofino, in the territory of the Tla-o-qui-aht First Nation, might be top of mind for a summer trip. But don’t sleep on a winter getaway here, because it truly hits different.

From dramatic storm watching to rainforest walks and dinners in cozy restaurants, misty winter magic thrives in Tofino. Plus, you’ll get to experience the Tofino at its best — peaceful, breathtaking, and wonderfully crowd-free.

Winter days done right

The force of nature is on full display in the fall and winter months in Tofino. The power of a winter storm is awe-inspiring, and witnessing one from a safe vantage point is nothing short of captivating. Imagine being curled up by a fireplace, a wine or hot chocolate in hand, as the skies and sea put on a show outside the window. Bliss!

If it’s raining, grab your jacket and boots — there are plenty of short, easy trails where you can take in the fresh coastal air, like the Tonquin Trail right in Tofino, or the Rainforest Trail in Pacific Rim National Park Reserve.

After a day of being out and about, and going from trails to shops to cafés, there’s no shortage of places to warm up with comforting West Coast fare. Be sure to spend some time in the art-filled, oceanfront Great Room at Long Beach Lodge Resort!
