About The Pointe Restaurant

Surveying the panoramic vistas from the westernmost point of Tofino’s idyllic Chesterman Beach, The Pointe Restaurant’s inspired West Coast cuisine and attentive service come gift-wrapped with 240-degree views of the Pacific Ocean, surrounding islands and wildlife.  Much of the fresh seafood is fished from the very waters overlooked by The Pointe, and a longstanding focus on locally sourced, high quality ingredients is continually elevated by Executive Chef Clayton Fontaine.
