Pacific Rim National Park, BC - 1000 Places to See Before You Die on Waymarking.com

Pacific Rim is best known for spectacular beaches, notably Long Beach and Florencia Bay Beach. It is a long, narrow park on the extreme west coast of Canada. Some popular activities include whale-watching during the springtime gray whale migration, surfing (wet suit required due to the cold water), camping, and beach-combing. Numerous glass Japanese fishing floats have been found on these beaches, although they are becoming less common.
There has been some debris from the massive Japanese tsunami found, and more is expected in 2014 and 2015.
The southern section of the park is unconnected to the main part, and consists of the 75 km West Coast Trail, which follows the old life-saving routes from the days when this stretch of coast was known as the "graveyard of the Pacific" due to the numbers of shipwrecks. (visit link)

Visit Instructions:
Because of the vastness of many of the "non-localized" sites (Gobi Desert, Great Wall of China), waymark owners are encouraged to allow visits that reflect different perspectives and experiences.
Localized waymark sites (Structures, Landmarks, Businesses) should reflect standard waymarking visit criteria (Logs & photos).
