10/10. Worth every penny. This man is just s great person. If you need a water taxi in Tofino, call him, you won't regret it ! He brought us to the Big Tree Trial and picked us up. Uncomplicated, informativ and just a great guy !

Wonderfully exceeded all expectations! I was expecting a super speedy and silent trip to Meares Island but instead was delighted by interesting and concise information from the operator. Prompt, polite, and friendly! Highly recommend

Vince is the nicest guy that takes such great care of the Meares Island Big Tree Trail, thanks again for everything you do! He was nice enough to point out a family of seals on our boat ride home! You can likely just give him a 30 minute heads up by call/text for going there or back. Meares Island has service for making a call for pickup

Not what I expected from a water taxi. It could’ve just been a quick 10 minute boat ride across to the island but Vince took the time to tour you around the coast a bit and talk to you about the history. He was also very informative in regards to the wildlife in the area and made it an enjoyable journey back and forth from the island.

Vincent is the best dude. I don't what's better Big Tree Trail, or the boat ride.
