📍San Josef Bay
A short 3.5 hour drive from the Qualicum Area, up to Port Hardy, then another 1.5 hours on an active logging road to the trailhead, then about 2.8km hike through the lush forest to a stunning beach. Then down the beach to some sea stacks. Where you can walk around or continue further down the beach... but be aware you can get cut off by the tide, so tick tock pay attention to your watch... or don't like us, and follow the wooded trail up and around for extra entertainment and some wild s**t. 🤙
*real talk* When I first walked out onto the beach at San Jo I was highly disappointed. You see all these beautiful photos and then you get there and you're like mmmm what, where the heck are these pictures taken? Well ya gotta walk down the beach to find them :) now ya know!
**caution**
When driving on active logging roads be extra careful, and it's suggested to bring a spare tire as there's not much or no service along there.
Also it's known for bears and wolves to be spotted here, so again use your noggin, don't try to pet them cuz they're cute! Definitely don't feed them, and bring your bear spray.
And oh yeah I just added this trail on so it should be on there soon!
