Hot Springs Cove – September 5, 2012

The hot springs are only accessed by boat or seaplane and are 26 miles from Tofino BC. Tofino is located on the Pacific Ocean (west coast) of Vancouver Island. We took the boat over which took 90 minutes and the airplane back for a short 15 minute flight. First time in a seaplane, which was a 1947 Beaver, loaded with 7 passengers and lots of camping gear. Not ours, three guys camped at the springs.

After getting off the boat there is a 45 minute walk thru the Forrest on a boardwalk to get to the springs. The boards of the boardwalk are engraved by past hikers. We found one that could of been ours: Happy Campers, from Denver CO.
