Watching Storms & Catching Waves

Wave gazing, ocean ogling, Pacific peering, salt chuck surveying… whatever you like to call it, it’s here! Storm Watching season has once again arrived on our shores.

From a cozy perch in the Great Room, watch as the waves, seemingly in slow motion, surge and crash in a tremendous display of power. Skilled surfers take to the water, offering unique entertainment as you enjoy your warm beverage.  We love this time of year for many reasons, but above all, for the amazing photographic opportunities it presents. From gorgeous sunsets to mammoth swell. Here are some of our favourite images from the season so far ... and it's only just begun!

"The most sustainable hotel in Tofino!"
2024-02-24
BetterTable.ca had the pleasure to stay at the Long Beach Lodge Resort, an amazing sustainable hotel with very friendly staff and a fantastic food and beverage experience. They have EV charging stations, move away from single use plastic, feature tasty local food and implement zero waste strategies, on top of many more initiatives. Ideally located a few meters from a beautiful beach with surfers. You must go if you stay in Tofino!
"Exceptional Dining Experience"
2024-02-10
Two evenings ago I showed up at the Long Beach Lodge Great Room for dinner. Even though I didn’t have a reservation and was a single diner I was immediately seated at a table by the window with the most magnificent view of the ocean and setting sun. I had the most delicious meal - the best I’ve eaten in a long time . To start I had a non alcoholic spiced ginger drink which was heavenly, then a romaine salad drizzled with an exquisite dressing and a snowfall of Parmesan. For the main event I was presented with a pound of Saltspring Island mussels in a tantalizing broth with copious amounts of pita for dipping. For dessert I had a decaf cappuccino which came extra hot exactly as I ordered. I was so impressed with the food, service and ambience . Thank you Reema for an exceptional dining experience.

We had the most wonderful stay at Long Beach Lodge. The staff was friendly, helpful, and made you feel right at home. The cottages were roomy, quiet, and cozy. We enjoyed the hot tub and all the amenities provided. We will certainly be back!
