🌦️ September can be one of the best times to experience the west coast. Expect fewer crowds, mild temperatures, and beautiful beach walks, but remember that coastal weather can change quickly. Bring layers, waterproof clothing, and sturdy footwear so you're prepared for sun, wind, rain, or fog all in the same day!
🍁 We look forward to welcoming you this fall to Pacific Rim National Park Reserve.
