Tonquin Beach Hike - Tofino, British Columbia・4K HDR

🕒07/21/23 6:30 PM 🌡️ 23℃
The Tonquin Trail is an easy walking trail that passes through rainforests along the Pacific coast and provides access to Tonquin Beach, which is a great location for watching sunsets. The beginning of the trail is within walking distance of the town of Tofino and can either be accessed by a trail at the end of Tonquin Park Road or from the Tofino Community Hall. There are some wooden stairs along the trail down to the beach but the forest trails are gravel and offer a fairly easy walk.
From the parking area at the end of Tonquin Park Road, walk up the paved path as it passes between some houses and quickly reaches a wooden platform at the top of a set of stairs. Walk down the stairs and cross the bridge, continuing into the forest. Within a couple of minutes, you reach the end of this section of trail as it arrives at Tonquin Beach.
The beach is a popular spot during the sunny evenings as it's one of the best locations in Tofino to watch the sunset. Since the beach is not located directly facing the Pacific Ocean, it does not receive the giant ocean waves and therefore, is much calmer than other areas, like Long Beach.
To continue hiking the rest of the Tonquin Trail, return to the trail where you accessed the beach and just to the right, further along the forest's edge, there is another trail. Follow this trail to the right as it reaches a large set of wooden stairs. Walk up the wooden stairs to the top and continue a short distance until you reach a junction, where the trail to the left goes to the Tofino Community Hall. Go right at the junction and follow the trail as it wraps along the coastline, staying in the forest above the ocean.
