Yes, float plane. The operator was Tofino air and our flightpath was on this coastline, not the Tofino coastline. It was a DHC2 Beaver and we were up in the air for around half an hour. It was a gift off our Ontario realtors, Ken and Sue Sherban, last year when we retired and it is certainly something I would do again in a year or so, Karen enjoyed it and the coast/mountain route the guy took us on was quite brilliant. I was surprised how smooth takeoff and landing was, but porpoise bay is usually a millpond anyway.
