Sunrise Mountain Hike
6:00 am - 2:00 pm
BC V9Y 9A5, Canada
Hiking boots, active wear, water and food
Hišimy̓awiƛ means “Gather Together” in the Barkley Sound dialect of the Ucluelet First Nation. We would love to gather together with our friends and family who are ready to drive up a forest service road and ascend on a steep hike into the mountains. Tom and April (plus Mitchell :) tackled this hike once before, in the dead of winter, with the ambitious goal of skiing and surfing in the same day. This time, we are hoping for a less snow covered route to see the breathtaking views of Vancouver Island. Note the allotted time and be ready for some decent elevation gain! It’s all part of the Tom and April adventure! If you would like to take a more causal route (kid-friendly), check out the Tonquin Trail in the "Things to Do" tab.
Afternoon Surf & Beach
3:00 pm - 5:00 pm
Tofino, BC V0R 2Z0, Canada
Cox Bay is one of Tofino’s top surf spots, but even if you’re not catching waves, it’s a great place for a beach walk, picnic or swim. Cox is easily accessible from Pacific Sands Resort, Surf Grove Campground, or the public parking area via the trail just past the bathroom block. We will set up close to the trail head so everyone can find us :) Surfboard rentals are available at Surf Grove Campground and Surf Sister at Pacific Sands Resort at your own cost. See more details in the "Things to Do" tab.

Whale Watching Tour
2:00 pm - 5:00 pm
606 Campbell Street, Tofino, BC V0R 2Z0, Canada
Whale Watching in Tofino is an unforgettable way to wrap up the weekend, and research shows that tours haven’t impacted the presence of these amazing animals around Tofino. You know April will be there, and we’d love for you to join too! If enough people RSVP, we may be able to book out a full boat, or even a couple! We ask people cover their own cost for this adventure. Bring warm layers and come ready for an incredible day at sea.
