Every other year in June the Van Isle 360 Yacht race circumnavigates Vancouver Island, with a stop in Ucluelet. Last year I captured this clip of the first yacht passing the Amphitrite lighthouse just after sunset. #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

An eagle, backlit against the sunset in Ucluelet, Vancouver Island. The Pacific fog bank hanging ominously above the horizon. #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland #Eagles

As the seasons turn to summer out here the grass at Big Beach in Ucluelet can grow to a few feet high. The lush green contrasting with the otherwise stark black rocks around the beach. The grass usually stands until it is battered down by the first storm #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

Sunset from Chesterman Beach this evening. It was an exhausting and fulfilling weekend in Tofino producing the live stream for the Canadian Surf Nationals. After 3 days of computer monitors and the backs of camera operators I’m thankful for this sunset. #Tofino #Ucluelet #VancouverIsland.

Tune in all weekend long for surf action from Cox Bay, Tofino with the RipCurl Grom Search and Canadian Surf Nationals on the Surf Canada YouTube channel. Action starts at 7am, Pacific Time Produced by; Geoff, The UkeeTube Guy; www.youtube.com/live/pcuEo4Z... #tofino #Ucluelet #VancouverIsland

I've been busy lately doing all the prep for my role producing the livestream of the RipCurl Canadian Surf Nationals in Tofino this weekend so I haven't been getting much new stuff but these highlights that will be playing throughout the surf broadcast #Tofino #Ucluelet #VancouverIsland #surfing

Sunsets on the Vancouver Island’s west coast can be among the most beautiful in the world… however, they are often a little less vivid 🤣 #Tofino #Ucluelet #VancouverIsland

Just another Ucluelet sunset. Might have more photos and such to share, later. #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

We stopped the boat today to let huge raft of sea otters pass. I've never seen a raft of otters this big, myself. I really have to go back with a big lens and a ton of patience to get "the shot" #Tofino #Ucluelet #VancouverIsland #ClayoquotSound #Otters

It was utter otter madness in Clayoquot Sound today. At one point we stopped the boat to watch a massive raft of 100+ sea otters paddle by. #Tofino #Ucluelet #VancouverIsland #ClayoquotSound

One of my real estate clients needed shots of a lot in a remote location near Hot Springs Cove, north of Tofino. So, we drove from Ucluelet to Grice Bay and hopped in a boat. Gotta love it when your commute looks like this. 😍 #Ucluelet #Tofino #ClayoquotSound #VancouverIsland

The villages of Ucluelet and Tofino get compared in a lot of ways by travelers and locals. As communities they're so intertwined that you can't really view them as separate places, more like neighbourhoods of the same town. #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

We’re live streaming tonight’s sunset from this location in Ucluelet. Near Little Beach. Check the YouTube channel to watch; www.YouTube.com/UkeeTube

A longer shot of waves rolling to Cox Bay, Č̓aḥayis (pronounced Cha-ha-yis) in Nuu Chah Nulth. This beach in Tofino will host the RipCurl Canadian National Surf Competition in a couple week and I'll be producing and directing the livestream coverage. #Tofino #Ucluelet #VancouverIsland #Surfing

Here's a motionlapse of last night's sunset in Ucluelet. #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

Last night's Big Beach sunset had one big surprise... at least for this woman. I may be wrong, so if you know them don't go blowing up their DMs, but from the other end of a telephoto lens it looks like he proposed. #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

Are any of you interested in the equipment and techniques I use to make the stuff you see on UkeeTube? Maybe you wonder which drones, cameras, lenses or editing equipment I use?

Shots of the Amphitrite Lighthouse that I've taken through the years of making stuff for UkeeTube. She has been a great model and friend on this journey. #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

This time of year the sun sets right behind "The Galleon" if you're watching from Big Beach beyond the Mystery Shipwreck... here are a few snaps from tonight. #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

Aerial footage looking down on waves rolling onto the coast of Vancouver Island at Ucluelet. Sorry the posts are slowing down. It's the time of year when I tend to have large projects for clients & other gigs. I'll try to keep a trickle of daily moments coming #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

We camped overnight in the mountains of Vancouver Island to get sunset and sunrise footage for a project. There were many serene moments like this one #Ucluelet #Tofino #PortAlberni #VancouverIsland #tlaoquiahttribalparks

Sunset from Big Beach, Ucluelet this evening. It was lovely to bump into some of you down there, and other earlier on the street. Meeting you is a treat. The fact that my Ucluelet addiction means something to other people is very fulfilling. #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

Today was the opening day for the season at Floathouse Patio and Grill in Ucluelet. In addition to being one of the most memorable places you can get dinner in Ukee, Floathouse has supported local musical endeavours and the local food-bank years. #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

Found some footage of locals eating (or just sticking out their tongue) that I shot with my telephoto lens while walking around Ucluelet last spring. Thought you might get a kick out of it. #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

It's been 3 whole days since I've shared a clip of waves at the Amphitrite Lighthouse :P #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

This little surge channel near a friend's home is a great place to socialize in the summer but much more treacherous when the seas are up. After the winter storms it takes days of labour to clear a path through the driftwood every spring. #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

Tin Wis is the Nuu-Chah-Nulth name of the beach some of you might know as MacKenzie Beach in Tofino. Tin Wis translate to "calm waters" Small islands protect the shore from waves driving in from the open Pacific making it a popular place for paddleboarding. #Tofino #Ucluelet #VancouverIsland

Sea lions have a tendency to take over docks all around the coast. The Whiskey Dock in Ucluelet was annexed by them recently but someone has prepared defences 🤣 #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland #Sealions

Clip from a misty morning at Amphitrite Point, Ucluelet last fall. #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

It was whale soup last night just off the coast near Ucluelet. I walked down the Wild Pacific Trail with my big lens and snapped a few shots of the humpbacks, sunset, eagles, gulls and other goodness. #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

Waves at sunset in Ucluelet on Vancouver Island, just off Big Beach. Getting exposure right at sunset when the sun is reflecting off the water is a never-ending challenge. This one came out over-exposed but I like the other-worldly vibe it creates. #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

Didn't have time to come up with an April Fool's joke so I'll just share something I'm thankful for. Two organizations that really relate to what UkeeTube is have recently licensed some of my media for their programs;

A real estate shoot had me flying near the Ucluelet boat basin today so I thought I'd update the class photo for Spring 2026. The Floathouse Restaurant in the bottom right opens for the season soon & their first day will be a food bank fundraiser. Details soon #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

First full day back in Ucluelet. Went down to big beach for sunset and stumbled across a buoy with a few goose-neck barnacle stowaways. #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

Shots of Helmcken Falls in Wells Gray Park, an old barn along The North Thompson River & rain rolling in over the hills above Shuswap Lake. Tonight is our last gig in Blue River then we'll take a few days to get back to Ucluelet. Hope to take more photos on the way home. #BritishColumbia

Near Amphitrite Point and He-Tin-Kis Beach in Ucluelet, Vancouver Island before sunset #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

Sights from a trip to Valemount on Monday; Including Mt Robson, Canoe Mountain and some Yellowhead Highway drama. I love life on the Island but I wouldn't complain if we have a few more of these proper mountains around #Valemount #BritishColumbia

Near the base of Mt Robson we went for a little walk. In my teens I was planning to be a mountain guide. In my 40’s I generally turn around at signs like this. #britishcolumbia #valemount #mountrobson

The McDiarmid cabin is a private home in Tofino located just North of The Wickaninnish Inn and Nanakʷuuʔa (aka Chesterman Beach) I bet they get some great sunsets from there. #Tofino #Ucluelet #VancouverIsland

Another shot of "Sunset Point" in Tofino. One more week in the interior and I'll be back on Vancouver Island filming these things again :D #Tofino #Ucluelet #VancouverIsland

This rocky outcropping in Tofino is a great place to watch sunset and waves. Just be safe if you do. My usual sources weren't able to provide me with a Nuu Chah Nulth name for it From a longer, widescreen video on the YouTube channel #Tofino #Ucluelet #VancouverIsland

We’re going to have a few days off from our music gigs in Blue River and are thinking of driving the triangle between Jasper, Banff and Kamloops. What would you recommend this time of year? Sightseeing, dining, other entertainment?

Misty grey sky, dark forest, black rocks and some of the many colours of the Pacific Ocean at Ucluelet, Vancouver Island #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsand

Thrilled that a few people have bought my prints at the Pacific Rim Arts Society’s “ArtSplash” event at Black Rock Oceanfront Resort. These three are still available there in 12x18. 10-4 daily through the Pacific Rim Whale Festival #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

I caught a fish thiiiiiis big. Cormorants enjoy a misty sunset at Ucluelet, Vancouver Island #Ucluelet #tofino #VancouverIsland

The seas don't always come dark an sinister on Vancouver Island. In the right conditions we can get this pastel blue. Shot near Big Beach in Ucluelet #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

Sometimes (ok, pretty often) the green of Vancouver Island gets pretty gray.. It's still pretty cool, though. #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

Artsplash 2026 has begun! The Pacific Rim Arts Society has gathered the works of dozens of local artists for a public showing at Black Rock Oceanfront Resort in Ucluelet as part of the Pacific Rim Whale Festival. Check it out all this week! #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

Looking down on waves crashing onto the rocks in Ucluelet, Vancouver Island #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland

Waves and birds in front of Black Rock Oceanfront Resort in Uclulelet. If you're in town right now I'll be playing some tunes at Black Rock this evening (March 12) from 7-9 #Ucluelet #Tofino #VancouverIsland
