Hotels in Pacific Rim National Park Reserve, Canada
Pacific Rim National Park Reserve hugs Vancouver Island's west coast, where the temperate rainforest meets the Pacific Ocean in a region famous for epic surf, wild storms, and the challenging West Coast Trail. Summers are mild (60-70°F / 15-21°C) and perfect for hiking through Sitka spruce groves or paddling the Broken Group Islands' sheltered waters, while winter storms (40-50°F / 4-10°C) turn Long Beach into a dramatic show of crashing waves-grab a rain jacket and watch from the sand. Whether you're a surfer catching breaks at Wickaninnish Beach or a backpacker tackling the 75-kilometer trail, this park offers tangible wilderness with no crowds if you visit in May or September.
