My Solo Trip Storm Watching in Tofino in the Winter
Вставка
- Опубліковано 3 лют 2022
- I've always wanted to go storm watching in Tofino. I made my way there from Vancouver without a car and stayed 3 nights at Ocean Village Resort and had such a relaxing time!
Tofino is on the traditional territory of Tla-o-qui-aht First Nations.

Great Video !! I can't wait to get out there to experience storm watching myself !
🙌
I never knew storm chasing could be such a fun outing. Most of us Canadians want to go indoors when there is a storm. There is something peaceful about rain hitting the roof of the building when I am inside it. Thanks for sharing.
It is nice hearing the rain outside! Thanks so much for watching Brandon!
Best travel video I have seen. Not too pretentious, nice music, simple narritave.
Haha thank you Lynn!
@@DaphneXplores You're welcome. I travel extensively for work but don't have time to vlog so I occasionally watch vlogs to see what others are doing.
what an amazing idea to travel alone. love your video.
Thank you!
I am heading to Van Island in May 2024 (ticket booked). I really want to go to Tofino, but I realized it is not worth travelling all the way there from Victoria. The drive is 4.5 hours. Then, the next day, it is another 3.5-hour drive to Campbell River. I don't want to travel that much, so I decided that I want to head up to Campbell River from Victoria. I'd like to stop off in Parksville and Qualicum Beach to get some decent photos. Those towns are lovely. My cousin is a fishing guide in C.R., so I hope to get on the boat to catch some fish and to see whales and bears. I saw a video of your s. You went to Campbell River to get on a boat and see some bears. Thanks for your videos. This is the second time I have watched your video of storm watching in Tofino
Thank you for watching! You’re going to have a wonderful time!
@@DaphneXplores Thanks, I sure will. I am on the Island from May 2 to May 15. Can't wait.
This video was exactly what I needed! So thank you 😊
Yay!
Wonderful video. Love everything - the visuals, storytelling, music. So peaceful - probably took my blood pressure down a few notches. Thank you for sharing.
Wow, great to hear! Thanks for watching :)
I ❤ Tofino. Great video 👍🫶
Thanks for watching!
So nice place 😍😍😍
I want this for my solo Christmas this year. ❤ Awesome video. New sub.
I'm new to BC, so I'm excited to watch more videos for solo travel inspo.
Welcome to BC! :)
i've been dreaming of Tofino stormwatching for a few years now and just came across this utterly perfect visual story. as others have remarked - beautiful music right in step with the picturesque natural landscape accompanied by spare narration. you did a beautiful job of describing the important features of the journey, and i want to recreate & experience every step of it. as a daughter of the Arizona desert (transplanted to California), i grew up madly obsessed with the electrical monsoon storms. even though i visit often, i've only recently caught a banger of a storm and know there aren't guarantees for mother nature and her many moods particularly weather! LOL i'd be enraptured with just rain & waves. i've just this moment decided i will plan a trip for January 2024. thank you again for this delightful guide.
Thank you Lisa for your lovely comment! I hope you’ll enjoy your trip!
@@DaphneXplores thank you. it's a long ways out, but i'm on it. i just booked your same studio right now for mid-January 2024. LOL not a stalker but Ocean Village checks all my travel- related boxes. got something to look forward to! fates be nice, please 😹
Thx for sharing. I will have to try this one day.
Thanks for watching!
Great video. Loved the balance of music and diegetic sounds, plus the composition of shots and the minimal use of subtitles during the travel montage sections. Your interpretation of 'slower' travel videos is very relaxing to watch👍
Thank you for watching! That’s great feedback for me to know what’s working well 👍🏼
This video is amazing! I watched it few times now. I love rain and ocean and would love being solely with them! You just did that and I was able to connect through your video. Hope to do what you did one day :) ... Keep making videos. You have a very simple and natural way of expressing your experience. Thank you for this video.
Thank you so much Rashedeen!
Thank you for posting this video. It was great to see your experience of Tofino. My partner & I will be visiting later in the week, we’re very much looking forward to it.
PS: Shout-out to you for travelling solo!
Thanks for watching, Sam! Enjoy Tofino!
Welcome back, Daphne!!!! Lovely video as always! I went to Tofino in November so a bit before you and I loved it.
Thanks Ray! That’s awesome!!
What a beautiful video! I wanted to see more videos of how Tofino is like in the rain, and it looks hauntingly beautiful. And great job with the editing and the shots you took. Very well done! I honestly think you should have more views and subscribers. You have gained a new subscriber here! :)
Aww thank you so much!

In mid-May of 2017, my ex and I spent five nights camping at the Bella Pacifica campgrounds just up the beach from where you stayed. We had a beachfront campsite...five paces and you're on the beach! MacKenzie Beach is a very picturesque beach. One day, we drove five minutes down the road to Long Beach. Not as picturesque as MacKenzie Beach but amazing in the expansiveness of it. On our way back from a walk to one end of Long Beach, I pointed out to my ex that there was no one else on the beach, just us....and that black bear over there. Fortunately, he was heading the other direction and wasn't interested in our beer and Hawkins cheesies. Also, we were fortunate that, at that time of year (mid-May), the owner of Stubbs Island, Mrs. Bloom, allows tourists to travel from the port in Tofino to her island. If I remember, correctly, it was free to hop on one of the shuttle boats (running every 15 minutes) and be able to view her amazing rhododendron gardens and walk around the island.
nice Job! I love this video? What do you think about my first experiece in Canada?
New videos and a new profile pic!
🤩 Thanks to a talented photographer
Can you make a video about crows??? I want to know where they sleep!!!
In the trees 🌳😮😮😮
what time of year were you here?
January
