Ucluelet Canada North America
Nature

A trip to the ocean side on Vancouver Island takes you to unexpected places. Black Rock Oceanfront Resort allows you to stand between the rocky coast and the Pacific Ocean waves — an eccentric destination with a remarkable panorama.

Unexplored shores and dense rainforests surround black Rock Oceanfront. Amid pristine nature, this destination is for those who want to escape reality and relax at the edge of the world.

Nature lovers and adventure seekers rejoice! Here you can go kayaking and surf along the rugged coastline of the Ucluelet Peninsula or zipline through the largest remaining intact temperate rainforest in the world.

There are some less adrenaline-pumping activities, like bike tours, bird watching, fishing, and visiting the famous beaches of Ucluelet.
