Taxi service to the Black Rock Beach House is available from the Tofino Long Beach Airport.

The Pacific Rim

Whether driving or taking a bus, the road from Nanaimo (on the east side of Vancouver Island) is one of the most spectacular in the world. Travel north on Highway #19 for 43 km (26 miles), take Exit 60 onto Highway #4
(also known as the Pacific Rim Highway) heading west for 156 km (97 miles). You will drive through spectacular Cathedral Grove, historic Port Alberni (drive straight downhill and turn right at the junction), and around beautiful Sproat and Kennedy Lakes. Travel westward until you come to the junction between Tofino and Ucluelet. Turn left at the Tofino/Ucluelet junction and drive south towards Ucluelet for 8 km (5 miles).

Black Rock Beach House

Follow the main road into Ucluelet (Pacific Rim Highway which becomes Peninsula Road), turn right on Matterson Drive and left on Marine Drive. By now, you will have a fabulous view of the wild Pacific Ocean. Black Rock Beach House is located at 524 Marine Drive.
