GETTING TO BAMFIELD
Visitors can reach KIIX̣IN Village by vehicle, floatplane, or boat.
Drivers are encouraged to prepare for the journey by filling up their tanks with gas and carrying water, snacks and necessities. The road leading to Bamfield – the town in which Kiix̣in Village is located – is remote, and roads can be narrow and winding.
