Half Moon Bay and Florencia Bay

The wonderful preservation of the local flora and fauna is apparent when walking the trail. The twists and turns that the trail takes have been carefully calculated to protect the beautiful and wind-blown ancient trees, while providing the most majestic scenery of the coastline from various viewpoint decks. Every summer season the Wild Pacific Trail Society offers dynamic Interpretive Walks that are free. These fun outdoor educational opportunities are great for both adults and kids alike. The interpretive walks are focused on the natural and cultural history of the Peninsula.

Whether you are with me for a surf camp, surf and yoga package or just happened to walk into the shop and come out for a basic group lesson, I hope to provide you with an experience that will have you not wanting to leave and anticipating your return. I’m excited to share the waves and my lifestyle with you, so let’s get out there!

ZIPLINING

Soar above the Winchee River, Ziplining through the Kennedy River Canyon. Located near Clayoquot Plateau Provincial Park, about 40 minutes from Ucluelet, along BC Highway 4, lies the experience of a lifetime. With six lines at the ready, our guides will take you on a journey of the lands and history through old growth rainforests, sharing the stories of those who came before us. After soaring above the river, don’t miss the opportunity to glide on it in a kayak or paddleboard. Get up close to the waterfalls and canyon walls, looking down to the bottom of this crystal clear river. Start your holiday before you get to the west coast at WestCoast Wild Zipline.
