Amazing Race Canada 2 - Week 2: YYJ, YAZ

We hope you enjoyed Week 2 of the Amazing Race Canada as much as we did!

Want to go where the teams did, and do what the teams did?

Fisgard Lighthouse, the pitstop for Week 1, is located in Colwood just outside Victoria, was the starting point for Week 2.Visit Fort Rodd Hill and Fisgard Lighthouse National Historic Sites
The teams flew from Victoria International Airport (YYJ) to Tofino Airport (YAZ), on the west coast of Vancouver Island. OK, one team almost took a taxi, but soon realized their error... Tofino Airport (YAZ) Transportation Guide

YAZ serves Tofino, Long Beach, Ucluelet
There is so much nature in the region, the teams only touched a part, spending most of their time - or should we say surfing time - at Wickaninnish Beach.Wickaninnish Interpretive Centre and Wickaninnish Beach
While not visited by the teams, Tofino is also the launching point for visitors to Long Beach, Pacific Rim Park and the West Coast Trail. If you loved what you saw, check out these additional destinations!Pacific Rim National Park Reserve of Canada
 
Of course, the Village of Tofino played a central role in the episode.

So, too, did nearby Ucluelet, another small community tucked next to the beauty of the Long Beach area.
