I’m still absolutely thrilled when someone buys a print. These 4 are headed to the BC interior but I’ve had some go to Australia, The Philippines and Germany 🤯 #ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

I don’t usually gatekeep locations and this one’s marked on all the maps but it’s nice to see that even on August long weekend you can find a bit of beach almost to yourself. #Uclulet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

Looking south from the Big Beach area in Ucluelet with waves crashing on the rocks at the entrance to the bay. I took some still photos with my mirrorless camera on this day and just printed one to send to one of you. #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

Going though some old photos I came across this one from Spring 2022. It's a good reminder that our local storms are more than just a novel photography subject and The Graveyard of The Pacific isn't a tourism slogan #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

Today’s weather was a mixed bag of sunshine and aggressive rain. The sky cleared for sunset, though. #Ucluelet #Tofino #Vancouverisland

Added a blog post about one of Ucluelet's greatest assets, The Wild Pacific Trail to the website. If you want to know why I love the trail there are some insights, there as well as some imbedded videos I've made along the trail over the years. #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

Screen grabs from a new long video featuring the Ucluelet Harbour and coastline near the Amphitrite Lighthouse in a calm summer evening. Look for it on the YouTube channel. #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

From last storm season on the west coast of Vancouver Island, near Ucluelet. I've share this one before as part of a longer video #Uclueltet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

This week I've had a chance to meet and befriend a family from The Netherlands. Maika, the 16 year old daughter, is a motivated songwriter who turned a family vacation into a mini tour looking for any stage she could find. I think they're in Vancouver next week.

Lots of things happening in the Ucluelet Harbour this afternoon on my walk. If you want to watch in real time we just added a live camera located in the harbour at Jamie’s Whaling Station to the “live cams” page in the UkeeTube website. #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

Highlights from a calm evening in Ucluelet with a beautiful sunset. Boats, buoys and the Amphitrite Lighthouse show off in a lovely glow. Taken from a fresh, widescreen video uploaded earlier today. #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

New 15 minute, ad-free, no music, no talk video on the YouTube Channel featuring footage from a beautiful calm sunset a few weeks back. Link in comments #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

Sunset tonight from Big Beach in Ucluelet was pretty good. #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

Sunset tonight from Big Beach in Ucluelet on Vancouver Island. The little speck in the sky in the first few seconds is one of the new Kingfisher SAR planes. Like most of the locals I’m still recovering from Ukee Days but I’m glad I didn’t miss this. #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

The Ukee Days Sealion calling contest was an huge hit. It's so wonderful that we have so many local characters who take part in these things. #KeepUclueletWeird #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland #UkeeDays

A few quick highlights to the Friday evening kickoff of Ukee Days. Live music, a barbeque and the gumboot toss set the mood for a weekend of lighthearted competition and community. We'll be livestreaming the parade in the morning and have posts all weekend #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

The coastal fog is a persistent factor here on Vancouver Island. Patchy and often less than a kilometer deep we regularly see sunny summery days in part of town while the rest is covered under a cool blanket of fog. #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

One of Vancouver Island's most beloved and memorable restaurants is FOR SALE! #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

Ukee Days is only a week away! If you've never been I've got a little description and a link to some videos on a new blog post. Check it out; www.ukeetube.ca/post/ukee-da... #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

Ukee Days (last weekend in July)

Ukee Days is Ucluelet's summer celebration. For more than 50 years Ukee Days has brought music, games and all the charm of a small-town fair to the end of the road. A Friday evening barbeque and gumbo...

Last night's hazy sunset was beautiful but who made the most of it's flattering light? The Amphitrite Lighthouse? Bell Buoy Y43? or the fishing boat "Tenacious"? I'm working on a long video from last night, it might be ready later today if time allows #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland
