There are a number of local facilities available to researchers in the Clayoquot Sound Biosphere Reserve ranging from dormitory style accommodations in Tofino to remote research cabins. Please contact CBT staff for further information and help planning your field work.
Cabin at Clayoquot Lake
In 2000 the Clayoquot Biosphere Trust (CBT) took possession of the Clayoquot Biosphere Project Research Cabins at Clayoquot Lake and Sydney Inlet. These cabins are available to scientists as a base for their work in the Clayoquot Sound Biosphere region. To express an interest in reserving research time at either of the cabins, or to learn more about the cabins, contact the CBT's Community Coordinator.

Located at the Tofino Botanical Gardens, and operated by the Tofino Botanical Gardens Foundation, this dormitory-style facility that can accommodate up to 32 guests, providing an ideal setting for research and education in the region. The facility provides an affordable venue for students, researchers and visitors engaged in learning and discovery. The Clayoquot Field Station is an interdisciplinary facility, which encourages interactions between students and researchers, writers, artists; people who work in the realm of ideas. These interactions can take place outside, in the classroom and, perhaps most importantly, in the dining room, the garden, a rowboat, or on the mudflats.
