Vancouver Island
A rough and rugged wilderness swath with a wave-crashing coastline where whales, otters and a multitude of marine life thrives. Old-growth forest, waterfalls and log-strewn beaches add to the appeal while camping is also available.
The park extends for around 50km along the West Coast of Vancouver Island and is popular for its long-distance wilderness hike, the Juan de Fuca Marine Trail.
