Tofino boasts the sixth best beach in the world, according to Lonely Planet.
The publication announced its top 20 on Jan. 30 with Chesterman Beach shining in the sixth spot.
“We have sent our writers everywhere in search of sublime, surf-pounded shorelines and remote pockets of hard-to-reach paradise for Lonely Planet’s new book Best Beaches in the World. From Albania to Yemen and everywhere in between, our team has swam, snorkeled, slugged cocktails and hiked through rainforests, to create the definitive beach bible,” the announcement reads.
