Making plans for your summer vacation? Let me help you pick the perfect destination! Would you like to enjoy the fresh air of the mountains and its lush nature? How about never-ending beaches, sparkling waterfalls, and glittering rivers?  Or a picturesque town with interesting museums and outdoor markets? Believe it or not, all these destinations coexist in one single destination: Vancouver Island, just off the Canadian Pacific Coast. More and more, visitors from all over the world, arrive at the beautiful shores of this idyllic island, seeking upmost relaxation and stress-relief, adventurous ecological experiences out at the sea and high up the mountains, and some of the few licensed marijuana dispensaries in the area. 

In fact, one of the main reasons why Vancouver Island is becoming a preferred destination for travellers not only from Canada, but also from the US and other parts of the world, is that here they can combine a perfect vacation surrounded by almost all kinds of geographical features imaginable, with easy and (particularly) legal access to high quality marijuana in all its three forms: fresh and dried marijuana, cannabis concentrates, and cannabis oil.

Where to stay on Vancouver Island

First of all, you need to find the best accommodation. If you prefer a highly tourist destination, you can find great lodging options in the popular Tofino or in Uncluelet. These two neighboring towns offer all the comforts and high-quality services a tourist might expect from a top-notch vacation resort. Yet, if your visit has mainly to get stoned, you need to know that there are currently only a couple of marijuana dispensaries operating in those towns at the moment. In that case, you’ll probably prefer to stay in the equally comfortable, yet much cheaper Port Alberni, a marijuana haven on Vancouver Island, which is also the central hub for exploring the area, and is located only two hours  away from Tofino. My suggestion? Go straight to the Alberni A1 Inn, and not only will you enjoy a truly comfortable stay, but also you will be only a step away from a licensed cannabis dispensary in town.

Experience nature!

Enjoy the mountains on Vancouver Island

Climbing, hiking, mountain-biking, and horse riding are popular activities to enjoy through the network of trails available in the Alberni Valley. From the easy 2-mile (3km.) track of Rogers Creek Nature Trail, to the challenging Mount Arrowsmith, you’ll find plenty of trails of mid-difficulty to enjoy mountain sports, surrounded by fabulous forests adorned with rivers, waterfalls and impressive natural landscapes.

Water sports for everyone!

The area around Port Alberni, Tofino, and Uncluelet offers a plethora of water sports to enjoy. From windsurfing, diving, fishing, and waterskiing, to kayaking, canoeing, paddle boarding, and surfing.  Vancouver Island boasts some of the best salmon fishing spots in the world. Also, if you visit during the summer or fall, you can book a morning tour to admire the salmon jumping at Stamp Falls

Have easy access to Vancouver Island cannabis dispensaries 

Vancouver Island is home to several licensed marijuana dispensaries that sells cannabis in the forms of edibles, concentrates, cannabis flower, CBD, tinctures, ointments, vapes and gear. Port Alberni is definitely one of the cities on the island where you can enjoy easy access to cannabis for both medicinal and recreational uses.
