A
pretty fishing village at the tip of Esowista Peninsula near the entrance
to Clayoquot Sound, Tofino is a rapidly growing tourist centre
for Long Beach and other Pacific Rim destinations. Tofino was named in
1792 after the Spanich Hydrographer Vicente Tofino de San Miguel
(1732 - 1795) who was Rear Admiral of the Spanish Naval Academy in Cadiz.
Amongst Tofino's pupils- while a mathematics teacher- was the explorer
Bodega y Quadra.
