Re: Victoria Island Trip
It is called Vancouver Island for starters. Victoria in the main city
at the very south tip and is the capital of BC.
It is a wicked place to have a 4x4 and wheel around!
About half way up on the west coast you have Tofino and long beach.
Long beach is wicked!
Go across, best via logging roads, but you need a good map and a local
likely to get you on the trail, to Courtney and Campbell River and stay
on the beaches there, they are on the inside east coast channel and the
tides are wicked.
At the north of Campbell river head west out to Tahsis on the west
coast. Beautiful drive to a port that was discovered by Fraser way back
before roads.
Then hit the north and hit logging trails out to a park at the very far
west point of Canada west of Port Hardy.
If you just want to go and plant yourselves vs a driving vacation, long
beach is my recommendation.
