Port Renfrew Travel Guide

Welcome to Port Renfrew, BC!

Vancouver Island's Port Renfrew is an isolated community located a two-hour drive from BC's capital city, Victoria, on the west coast of the Island. This coastal destination was once known only as a fishing and forestry centre, but tourism has become increasingly popular as hiking enthusiasts head to Port Renfrew for access to two of Canada's most famous trails. The Juan De Fuca and West Coast trails are Pacific West Coast nature is at its finest. Those who aren't into multi-day hikes would also enjoy a trip here, where they can spend a day kayaking, fishing, birdwatching or whalewatching. Botanical Beach is a well-known spot for exploring the natural history of this diverse landscape. But perhaps the most alluring aspect of a visit to Port Renfrew is that this small community offers the chance to truly get away from it all amidst this busy, industrialized world, and that in itself is priceless.
