Description
This is the view from the little town of Tofino on the west coast of Vancouver Island looking north across the Clayoquot Sound to the west coast mountains. This is a classic image of the beautiful Pacific NW inlets and fjords.
Clayoquot Sound
The Clayoquot Sound is located on the west coast of Vancouver Island in the southwest part of British Columbia and Canada. The sound consists of many inlets, bays and islands forested with temperate rain forest.
The land around Clayoquot Sound includes vast coastal temperate rain forest, rivers, lakes, and marine areas and beaches. This includes part of the Pacific Rim National Park Reserve.
For thousands of years the people of the First Nations have lived here and in the late 18th century numerous European and American ships involved in fur trade explored the Sound. Three major First Nations bands still make this beautiful country their home and are involved in protecting the giant trees on Meares Island from being logged.
