Ucluelet - Hard to Pronounce, Harder to Forget!

Have you ever heard of Ucluelet? It's a little town located at the very end of the TransCanada Highway, on Vancouver Island in British-Columbia.

Our group came across steemit and decided to start an account to let people know people know more about our quaint little fishing town.

When to Visit?

Surprisingly enough, Ucluelet is becoming more and more a year round destination.

Stormwathing - November to March

Storm Watching is a major highlight of the year and the perfect time to cozy up by the fire and enjoy a nice glass of wine after experiencing one of the 10-15 mega storms. It's quite the spectacle and many people escape here to experience the power of the ocean.

Spring - April to June

One of my personal favorite. The shoulder season is great because it's calmer then the summer, accommodations are more affordable and the weather is JUST right.

Spring - April to June

The Summer months are beautiful on the West Coast. Ucluelet welcomes visitors from all around the world; yet it keeps its laid-back vibe and never feels too crowded.

Fall - September to November

There are so many eco-adventures awaiting; wildlife tours, kayaking, surfing, paddle boarding, scenic flights, ziplining, fishing charters, sunset cruises, or just sitting on the beach watching the world go by. Fall is the perfect time to do that.
