#### The calm waters of this beach near Tofino make it an ideal spot for families to take a break from city life and go for a swim.

Visitors flock to Mackenzie Beach to enjoy its calm waters and family ambiance. The Vancouver Island strip of sand is particularly popular because it is close to the town of Tofino and is protected from high winds by rock formations. Its calm waves create a family atmosphere, since more adventurous swimmers and surfers make their way to tougher waters farther south.

Claim a spot on the sandy beach for you and your family to sit with a picnic and enjoy with a scenic view of the ocean. The beach is a hotspot for sunbathers in the summer. Dip your feet in the ocean or go for a swim to cool down after an afternoon in the sun. Bring plenty of sunscreen and water for your time on the coast. Stay for the sunset to see the sky change colors.

The beach is popular in the winter among storm watchers. The tempests, which put on a marvelous light show over the ocean, have also shaped the trees behind the beach. Note that many are bent out of shape as a result of the storms. Meander through piles of driftwood stacked on the sand. Watch kids making forts out of the sand and wood.

Take the kids beachcombing along miles of sand to find interesting items, such as seashells, fossils and driftwood. Play beach volleyball and frisbee with family and friends.

Spend the night at a resort or in the nearby campground. Scenes from the 2005 remake of The Fog were filmed on sections of Mackenzie Beach.

Drive 1.8 miles (3 kilometers) south from the city of Tofino to reach Mackenzie Beach. It faces the Templar Channel on the west coast of Vancouver Island, just north of Chesterman Beach, Long Beach and Schooner Cove. The journey will take about 5 minutes by car, first along main roads, and then via dirt paths. Parking can be quite difficult to find at peak times.

7/10 Good! (1,279 reviews)

For the price you can't complain. Area is not the best. Traffic noise could be an issue. It is well dated but the room was comfortable. The window didn't close and was very thin. There are good restaurants and shopping nearby.

9.4/10 Exceptional! (2,115 reviews)

This was our second time at the Summit Lodge after loving it so much last year, we booked there again!! We love this property. It’s clean, very comfortable, nice staff at check-in, pleasant and professional cleaning crew, cool shuttle drivers, warm facility, and good vibes overall! They had some hot water issue during our stay (2 days) but we were notified in advance of arriving, so we came mentally prepared. Staff handled the situation with care and fixed the issue during the day while we were on the slopes. We were inconvenienced one night (no hot water) but managed to heat up water on stove to still take a tiny shower. These things happen and did not stop us to still enjoy our stay at this facility. We will be back for sure! On a related note, we found out that the Lodge actually credited us one night on our stay for the hot water inconvenience. This goes to show how considerate management is at this facility. It shows through the employees too!
