Tsusiat Falls Camp

Tsusiat Falls Camp sits at kilometre 25 on the West Coast Trail, roughly 24. 9 km from the Pachena Bay trailhead, on a sweeping sandy beach beneath tall rugged cliffs.

The 33-metre waterfall is the campground's defining feature — hikers can swim in the pool at its base or find a rock shelf behind the cascading water. It is consistently the most popular campground on the trail.

The camping area stretches along the beach, with driftwood logs naturally partitioning spaces and providing some privacy even when the site is busy. Facilities include two outhouses, three food storage caches, and a bear hang.

Water is available from the waterfall and creek on the north side of the campground; those concerned about swimming activity in the falls pool should collect water from the river above before descending the ladders to camp.

Parks Canada limits stays to one night due to historically heavy use.
