Tahsis, a remote West Coast gem, is a place where wild Pacific landscapes meet warm, close-knit community life. Residents here experience the thrill of living alongside the untamed beauty of Tahsis Inlet, where rugged mountains and old-growth forests provide a stunning everyday backdrop. Outdoor adventures define the pace of life—kayak along vivid blue waterways, set out on a fishing expedition, or hike lush trails such as the famed Leiner River Estuary Trail and uncover secret waterfalls. The village also serves as a gateway to Nootka Sound, renowned for its world-class marine life sightings and unforgettable coastal experiences.
Families enjoy an intimate educational environment at Captain Meares Elementary Secondary School, where small class sizes foster personalized learning and a strong sense of belonging. The Tahsis Recreation Centre acts as another community hub, offering indoor swimming, fitness classes, and spaces for events—all a short stroll from the waterfront. The village’s rich local culture shines at the Tahsis Museum Society, where intriguing exhibits tell the story of generations who have called this coastal haven home.
Despite its welcoming seclusion, Tahsis is part of an expanding network of west coast communities, with easy access to Gold River for additional amenities and connections to Vancouver Island’s central and northern hubs. The village is perfect for those seeking a quieter lifestyle surrounded by nature, yet anchored by supportive neighbors and a vibrant sense of place.
