The area around Tofino and Clayoquot Sound offers numerous opportunities for beach combing, kayaking, surfing, fishing, golfing, wild life viewing, photography and storm watching. Pacific Sands has teamed up with some of the area’s finest operators and have put together some great packages to enhance your west coast experience.

Our new Villas, represent our families commitment to the provide eco-friendly accommodation. Heating, cooling and domestic hot water is all produced using a Geo Exchange system. (Earth Source Heat Pump). The timber frame material used throughout the Villas was sourced from standing dead timber (pine beetle) found in the interior of BC. Low flow toilets and Hardi Plank siding were also used extensively throughout the project. Even the old cabins that were on the site were relocated and now are used for staff housing.

The Pettinger family has owned and operated the Pacific Sands Resort since 1973, and our family, along with our award wining Guest Services Team, hope you consider staying with us on your next visit to Tofino.

Yours truly,
