Aviawest at The Pacific Rim
Think of ancient cedars and ocean spray. The Pacific Rim takes you to the edge of Canada in comfort and outdoor-inspired style.
Local Attractions
Surrounded by the Pacific, you'll start each day with fresh ocean spray in the air. Rainforest trails encompass the area to connect you to the beauty of Vancouver Island on foot or by bike.
Embark on a wildlife tour and snap shots of black bears, killer whales and bald eagles. Or get even closer to the ocean and explore the area in a kayak.
Warm up in your jacuzzi tub when you get back. Sample the savoury flavours of the West Coast as you look out on an ocean sunset.
