Pacific Rim National Park is famous for its variety of beaches. Some are covered with black lava-rock formations, some, like world-famous Long Beach, are covered in a silky sand and stretch for miles. Changing tides create new beachcombing opportunities everyday. For more adventurous people, there are opportunities to surf at Long Beach and other beaches. Several outfitters in the area rent equipment and provide lessons.

The Wild Pacific Trail is a network of paths around Ucluelet tracing the rugged shoreline offering panoramic views of the Broken Group Islands. The trail winds through ancient rainforests, with giant windswept trees, ferns, mosses, nurse logs as well as birds and other forest creatures. Cygnet Cove Suites is situated just a few metres from the trail.

Cathedral Grove on Highway 4 (20 km south of Port Alberni) is also a great place to stop on your way up to Canadian Princess and experience the power of nature. The grove is home to trees over 800 years old and some that are more than 30 feet across.
