Tour
the backcountry of Southern Vancouver Island's rugged West
Coast near Port Renfrew, in the comfort of an All Terrain
Vehicle, generally called an ATV. ATV's permit access to
places where very few people ever get to visit and where
even sure-footed horses will not go. This is the real back
country experience. Join one of our professional and experienced
Port Renfrew ATV tour operators who will take you deep into
the wilderness above Port Renfrew. You will visit the clean,
clear air of the deep backcountry and enjoy breathtaking
views of the majestic mountainous lush green forests, streams
bubbling with crystal clear mountain water, beautiful lakes,
meadows and occasional snow capped peaks. Take this opportunity
now and be sure to bring your camera to record a 'once in
a lifetime' experience. Kodak moments guaranteed! Binoculars
are recommended to enhance your viewing of local wildlife
and waterfowl in their natural surroundings. Our experienced
guides will familiarize you with all equipment, safety features
and practices, so you can have fun with confidence. Every
ride will be paced to ensure the comfort and enjoyment of
every member of the group. Book your back country experience

Just
2 hours west of Victoria, the picturesque village of Port
Renfrew, located at the southern end of beautiful San Juan
Beach, close to the mouths of the Gordon and San Juan Rivers.
While commercial logging and fishing originally put Port
Renfrew on the map, the area is now also world famous for
the West Coast Trail, other wilderness trails, scenery,
whale watching and salmon fishing.
Our base is in the town of Port Renfrew and from there we
take to the roads and the trails in the backcountry. We
go high into the hills around Port Renfrew where the vistas
are spectacular. In some places you can see distant points
across the island. Port Renfrew is sounded by deep wilderness
and wildlife is abundant. ATV tours are the only way to
bring you up close and personal.
When
you visit Port Renfrew, you can start your visit with our
ATV Tour and get a real feel for the "Port Renfrew"
experience. When you have had your fill of ATV travel, you
can enjoy more of what Port Renfrew has to offer. We highly
recommend a trip to Botanical Beach, an ecological reserve
that has some of the most fantastic tide pools you will
ever see. When the tides drop below 4 feet, a shelf of the
ocean is exposed and left behind are enourmous tide pools.
Botanical Beach is just two miles from Port Renfrew plus
a 20 minute trail hike from the parking lot. Botanical Beach
is at the mouth of Juan de Fuca Strait and is one of the
most beautiful places on Vancouver Island.
If
you like hiking there are some excellent trails around Port
Renfrew that we can direct you to. The whale traffic in
Juan de Fuca Strait and along the western coast line is
fantastic. Often you can see whales passing Botanical Beach
and a whale watch tour will bring you up close and personal.
Port
Renfrew ATV Tours will be happy to direct you to these excellent
activities or recommend local fishing guides to take you
out for some great salmon or halibut fishing.
