Great visibility and very easy for drivers to pull into the Ice cream shop parking lot right from the highway. Direct ride to Nanaimo. Also, ice cream if you get discouraged!

Hitchhiked walking all the way from city center to here, no good place for cars to stop. Bad road.
Finally ended up here who looked like a golden place to hitch a ride...

After an hour here (2 hours including the walking part) I gave up and took a bus going to Duncan, hoping to be luckier there.

At least, my ride was free because I got a bus ticket from a local while I was walking through Nicol St, that was nice.

Walked out of the pier, thumb up.

Got a simple ride from Amid, nothing to add.

I tried to hitch after the traffic lights to get to Tofino, took a while, probably should have tried from the information center.

Heavy traffic, very stoppable, good visibility, but speeds are high if cars're not stopped by the traffic light.

Traffic lights with a Information center. Substitute spot if you coming off the ferry and can't get a ride. Good for going north or to Tofino, Port Alberni.

Good spot, there is lots of traffic and plenty of space to stop. Traffic light slows it down. I got a direct ride to Tofino after about 10 minutes
