Pacific Rim National Park Reserve

Pacific Rim National Park Reserve is a 511 square kilometre protected area located on the west coast of Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada. The park comprises three distinct units that showcase the rugged beauty of Canada's Pacific shoreline: the Long Beach area with its sweeping sand beaches and old-growth rainforest, the Broken Group Islands scattered throughout Barkley Sound, and the famed West Coast Trail. This national park reserve protects a remarkable diversity of ecosystems including temperate rainforest, coastal dunes, rocky shores, and marine environments. The region experiences one of the wettest climates in Canada, receiving over 3,500 millimetres of precipitation annually, which sustains the lush vegetation that characterizes the landscape. Pacific Rim represents the Pacific Coast Mountains natural region in the Parks Canada system and serves as one of three national parks with direct ocean access on Canada's west coast.
