Review:
Located in the Pacific Rim National Park Reserve, Long Beach is the longest and largest beach on Vancouver Island’s west coast. Running parallel to the entire Tofino-Ucluelet highway the beach is easily accessible via car. It is one of the earliest and most famous surfing locales known for its consistent surf. The beach itself is covered in driftwood logs with some sandy patches revealing themselves at low tide. Several rocky “islands” are also exposed during low tide in the mid-tidal area of the beach. Visitors are welcome to explore the “islands.” However, its unwise to explore unsupervised. Visitors are cautioned to avoid the islands during turbulent weather and when it nears high-tide, as dangerous rip currents exist around the bigger islands.
