Pull on a wetsuit and venture into British Columbia’s cool, clear waters to be rewarded with amazing surf breaks.

Beyond Tofino, surfers follow their passion to breaks around Vancouver Island such as Jordan River, Raft Cove, and Nootka Island. Those who go remote—north to Haida Gwaii—are rewarded with empty beaches all to themselves.
