About Ucluelet, BC

In the Nuu-cha-nulth (Nootka) First Nations language Ucluelet means "people of the safe harbour," that description says it all. The rugged West Coast community of Ucluelet is built on a peninsula. On one edge of the peninsula, you have the jagged coastline where you can see for miles out to the open Pacific Ocean, and on the other side, you have a sheltered harbour.

Ucluelet's first trading post was established in 1870 by Captain Francis, but there has been evidence found of First Nations peoples living along the outer edge of the West Coast of Vancouver Island for at least 4,300 years. About 1,625 people currently call Ucluelet home, and with the extraordinary views and laid-back, family-orientated community, you won't be able to pass up a chance to call Ucluelet home either!
