Port Renfrew isn't exactly at the end of the road, but it sure seems like it. It is about as far west as you can go along the southern coast of Vancouver Island without a boat, or hiking the West Coast Trail. I explored the beach at the head of the bay - on Pacheedaht tribal land - which sort of looked like where old trees go after they die.
And then I went out to Botanical Beach, where the tide was too high to really appreciate the botanical part of the beach, but which was still wonderful and a great counterpart to Cape Flattery, just 15 miles away on the other side of the Strait.I ended up back to the Port Renfrew Hotel/Pub for a late lunch and my closest brush with civilization all day - except for the coffee place with WiFi on the way out of town.
