Getting Here
Getting here is part of the adventure. Enjoy a scenic 45-minute flight via float plane from Vancouver or Victoria sea harbours. Up for a drive? Try the scenic Pacific Rim Highway from Port Alberni or take the picturesque 2.5 hour drive from either the Comox or Nanaimo airports to our pick-up-point at Secret Beach Campground near Ucluelet. Our team can answer questions to help you decide the best route for you.
