 If you are looking for a Vancouver Island paradise, Tahsis BC homes for sale might be just what you’re looking for! Tahsis is located on the West Coast of Vancouver Island with unparalleled outdoor recreation, stunning coastal scenery. Located on historic Nootka Sound and surrounded by steep coastal mountains.
Tahsis has breathtaking water and mountain views and is well known for sport fishing, and is slowly gaining an international reputation for scuba diving, caving, sea kayaking, surfing, hiking, bird watching and wildlife viewing.  Tahsis is sheltered to the North by the Brooks Peninsula, and has a mild climate similar to the more southerly area of Tofino. New trails built in the last few years--Bull of the Woods Trail, Leiner River Boardwalk and the Maquinna Trail-- have proven increasingly popular. Tahsis is an ideal base from which to pursue the salt water fish of the Pacific, Esperanza Inlet and Nootka Sound. At various times of the year our waters play host to Chinook, Coho, sockeye, pink, and chum salmon.  In addition there are many varieties of tasty bottom fish such as halibut, ling cod, sole, greenling, sea bass, red snapper, cabezon and several other varieties of rockfish. Herring and shellfish (crabs, prawn and clams) are also bountiful in these waters.
Homes for sale in Tahsis offer a well-equipped community with High Speed Internet, a Recreation Center with heated swimming pool, sauna, 5 pin bowling alley, community gymnasium, fitness room and community Kitchen. Tahsis has basic services with a Building Supply, Grocery Store/Cafe, several restaurants, Public Library, Medical Center, Post Office, two Marinas, a waterfront Resort and Fishing Lodges serving an international clientele. The Tahsis original town site is picturesque; the first homes in the area were float homes built in the 1940s, brought ashore and set upon timber foundations on steep mountainside st reets. Stonework walls and monuments are a distinctive feature created by a local stonemason. While the current population is 396 people, the town and infrastructure is built for many more residents from when the local Sawmill was running, before closing permanently in 2002. The local Historical Society established a museum depicting life in a mill town from its origins to the present, and created an historical walking tour brochure for visitors to learn about our heritage. The museum is open in the summer, when the local Chamber of Commerce hosts a Tourism Info Center. Tahsis is located a 2 and a half hour drive from Campbell River, the last hour on a well maintained gravel road.
