With the town of Tofino just 15 minutes away, a new terminal just completed and upgrades to the airport in the works this is a great destination to fly into to experience the wild west coast of Vancouver Island. Accomodations range from the renowned Wickaninnish Inn and its ocean view restaurant, "The Pointe" to excellent hostels, budget motels and Vacation Rentals there is something for everyone. Budget Rental car is available at the airport too so transportation is immediately available year round.
Orca Airways flies daily between the South terminal of Vancouver International and Tofino. They use Piper Navajos; 2 pilots on board plus 7 passengers maximum. Everyone gets a window seat!
Beautiful run coming in. Take a bike and ride to Long Beach Lodge for extremely fine dining and an even more phenomenal beach... great surfing destination

I drove to the airport out of curiosity, when I was vacationing in the area, in 2003. A Canadian Forces team was there running tests on a UAV.
