Long Beach is the largest and longest beach in the Pacific Rim National Park Reserve on the west coast of Vancouver Island, British Columbia, Canada. It is located on Wickaninnish Bay between Tofino (NW) and Ucluelet (SO) and borders on camping and picnic areas. The British Columbia Highway 4 runs parallel to the entire beach. The constant surf of the beach, which is exposed to the open Pacific, has made it one of the earliest and most popular surfing areas in British Columbia. Long Beach, Vancouver Island
In the tidal zone of Long Beach there are rocky islands that can only be reached at low tide. When the tide is high, the islands are either surrounded by water or hit by the waves. There are also dangerous surf backflows around the larger islands and sometimes further away in the open sea. Unsupervised swimming is considered risky and dangerous. Because of this, access to the beach is restricted in severe weather. Strikingly attached signs warn of the danger of entering the beach at high tide. Logs lying around on the coast as driftwood can be unexpectedly set in motion by waves and washed up to higher areas of the beach. (Source Wikipedia)
