Plan your visit to The Pointe Restaurant

The Pointe Restaurant won't fail to impress. One of the best restaurants in Tofino, it’s a top rate gourmet destination on Vancouver Island. You’ll be greeted by a 240 degree view of the Pacific Ocean and inevitably need to take a few moments to drink it all in before turning your attention to the menu. Discover dishes by chef Clayton Fontaine and his team, expertly reworking and modernizing traditional Canadian cuisine.

A local Tofino favourite, the Driftwood Café is named for it's signature massive driftwood bar, found on coastal Vancouver Island. During the day, enjoy a latte or cappuccino, along with a delicious house made croissant or pastry or perhaps a fruit smoothie, brunch or selection of sandwiches. If you would rather take your meal to the beach, the Driftwood Café's Beach Walk menu will offer you on-the-go friendly choices. Daily house-made bread is available for purchase so you can take the freshness home with you. Slow down time in the afternoons on Chesterman Beach with a glass of wine, beer or ciders on the Café’s beachfront patio, cozied up inside by the fireplace, or at the bar.

Whether you’re looking to warm up after an invigorating beach walk or cool down aprés-surf, our On the Rocks Bar is the perfect place to kick back with friends and family. Come early, or stay late. Relax. Let us mix you an original cocktail, select the perfect wine, or pour you a crisp, quality-crafted beer from the region. Classic fare like our West Coast Clam Chowder or the Fully Loaded Burger are best paired with—whatever your new favourite is! We will find it for you.

The Wickaninnish Inn stands on an outcrop between the Pacific Ocean, Chesterman Beach and a forest of giant evergreens. Artists, including renowned wood carver Henry Nolla, designed elements of its two buildings with the aim of blending art, nature and culture. You can even meet local artists at the onsite carving shed. Each room has a fireplace and picture window offering views of the coastline. Set off on a day of sea kayaking, or to see whales, sea lions or bears around Clayoquot Sound. Relax with a soothing spa treatment after your day's adventures. From November to March, you can admire mighty Pacific storms, watching from the comfort of your guest room as waves come crashing ashore.

From extreme to extremely laid back, there are activities here for everyone during every season: from wildlife excursions, cultural tours, fishing, kayaking, paddle boarding and surfing, and more to helicopter journeys taking you to untouched lakes, streams or glaciers.

Allow our knowledgeable Concierge team, headed by a Clefs d'Or member, to arrange a personalized Tofino experience.

Exploring Tofino

In the late 70's, with the help of contractor Don McGinnis and carver Henry Nolla, the McDiarmid family began construction on their Shell Beach cabin. Dr.McDiarmid developed a deep respect and trust for Henry, inviting him to build his own place on property. In his Carving Shed on Chesterman Beach, using tools he designed himself, he completed much of the adze work found throughout the Wickaninnish Inn. Though Henry passed in 2004, his legacy continues in the hub of artisan activity at his carving shed right by the Inn's Beach Building as well as the small Henry Nolla Art Gallery off the Driftwood Café.
