TAKE THE PLUNGE

For a memorable day trip out of Tofino, head to Hot Springs Cove with Ocean Outfitters. Nestled in the lush Maquinna Marine Provincial Park, these stunning natural springs are as scenic as they are relaxing, with several geothermal pools, a beautiful waterfall and incredible ocean views to enjoy. And the trip to get to them is an adventure in itself – a 1.5-hour wildlife cruise is followed by a 30-minute stroll along a boardwalk through old growth forest. Tours are available all year round.
