A national park campground above Long Beach between Tofino and Ucluelet, BC, with electric sites, free hot showers and quick beach access. Strict bear-safety rules and a steep beach path are the trade-offs.
Green Point Campground sits on the bluff above Long Beach in Pacific Rim National Park Reserve, about 20 km from both Tofino and Ucluelet. Many reviewers call it the most beautiful campground they've stayed at. The beach is long enough that some days it feels empty, and sunsets are a highlight.
The facilities are a strong point. Every drive-in site has electricity, and there are flush toilets, free hot showers and outdoor dish-washing stations. Most visitors found the washrooms very clean and close to their sites. Walk-in tent sites are singled out as the cosiest option, while some drive-in sites are more open to the road.
Days here revolve around the beach and the coast. There are two beach access trails, and a paved bike path runs to Tofino and Ucluelet. In the evenings, children can attend talks at the campground theatre. Solo travellers say they felt safe, and a few people managed to get a same-day spot when someone left early.
Know the rules and the terrain. It's a bear-aware national park, and food, dishes and stoves must be packed away whenever you leave your site; one reviewer found staff enforcement strict and unfriendly. The beach path is a steep climb back up. A recent camper found one new washroom building had only a single toilet and shower, though another visitor had multiple stalls near each of their sites. Coastal weather can be windy, misty and cold at night, so bring warm clothes.
