Why Vancouver Island's Tofino is... Canada's Wild West!

Wearing my hotel-branded yellow raincoat, I walk to Cox Bay beach on Vancouver Island’s Tofino looking out to the wild Pacific waves, dotted with brave surfers.

The noise of the ocean is immersive, like cinema surround sound. I record it on my phone, hoping it will transport me back here once I am home, far from the restorative healing properties of the sea.

Snorkel Sunken Ships in Kingston, Ontario

The last time I took my son snorkelling, he was just six years old. We stood in water that barely came up to my thighs on a soft sandy ocean bed. Lying flat with our faces in the water, we pushed off and walked on our hands, kicking our flippers out behind us. It was the perfect introduction to the mysteries of the underwater world.

If you’re visiting Japan, but only staying for a short trip, there is no guarantee that you’ll see cherry blossoms. However, pre-planning and a little research about predicted blooming times in the region you’re visiting should improve your odds.
