You’ll cross Vancouver Island to reach Pacific Rim, on the West coast. Along the way, you’ll pass through centuries-old rainforest and protected parks, entering a wild, entirely natural territory. Your hotel stands, imposing, on the rugged rocks lashed by the Pacific’s waves. Half a day will be devoted to a zodiac outing to observe bears fishing along the shoreline.
During your free time, you can explore the rugged coastline along marked hiking trails, or simply stroll along the beaches of Long Beach. Keep an eye out: Canada geese, deer, black bears and loons are all around…
