***Fred Tibbs Rental Condominiums**
THE SEASHELL: The building is named after Fred Tibbs, an eccentric British pioneer who arrived in 1905. He purchased a small island off the Tofino shore, calling it 'Dream Island.' According to local folklore, Tibbs was known to climb to the top of a lone spruce tree on his island and play his clarinet, a charmingly unique figure in Tofino's history.

Ideal for couples or solo travelers, the space features a fully stocked kitchen, perfect for preparing meals or enjoying your morning coffee while soaking in the beautiful scenery.
