Taste Tofino


Raising a glass at Feast BC


Stunning natural surroundings, luxury landmark accommodations and an incredible food scene, Tofino, a small, surfing and fishing village synonymous with whale and storm watching, offers the perfect Trifecta for a glorious BC Getaway.

Offering a West Coast experience in the most spectacular of settings, a burgeoning culinary scene has meant the formation of a Culinary Guild and the beginnings of a world class food and wine festival. Showcasing local attractions, producers, and chefs, FEAST BC (running until June 4) is a celebration of boat to table cuisine showcasing sustainable seafood and fresh ingredients.

Long been a draw for artists, outdoor enthusiasts and love birds wanting a romantic getaway and that proverbial long walk on the beach, the abundance of locally available sustainable seafood coupled with the sophisticated talents of individuals in the kitchen will ensure BC’s newest culinary hotspot will be an annual show stopper for foodies and outdoor adventurists alike.
