Naa'Waya'Sum Gardens, formerly known to many visitors as Tofino Botanical Gardens, is a coastal garden and learning landscape shaped by rainforest, art and local ecological knowledge. Paths lead through planted areas, wet ground and forest edges rather than a formal flower-garden display.
It is a thoughtful stop for travellers who want Tofino to be more than surf breaks and storm watching. Go slowly, read the interpretive material, and treat the garden as a place to think about Clayoquot Sound's ecology and communities.
