Tour Highlights:
Without a doubt, one of the most amazing things to see at San Josef Bay are the sea stacks. The sea stacks at San Josef Bay are some of the only ocean-eroded stacks on Vancouver Island, and are certainly the most extreme. Water surging through the sandy passages at high tide has slowly eroded the softer rock, leaving behind only the harder formations. In some spots, this effect has left behind the sea stacks, a remarkable feature, but one found fairly commonly around the world.

Cape Scott Provincial Park
Upon reaching the trailhead, we begin a 60-minute hike on a well-maintained path through old-growth Western Red Cedar and Sitka Spruce. These ancient trees form a stunning canopy, filtering sunlight onto the forest floor. The air, rich with the scent of earth, foliage, and moss, offers a sensory delight. An outhouse is conveniently located at the trailhead, near the beach, for any last-minute needs before we explore the captivating coastline.
