"Also known as the Third Street lookout, this small park looks over Tofino’s working harbour and out to Meares Island Tribal Park, including the Tla-o-qui-aht community of Opitsaht. It’s a good spot to enjoy an outside snack and to learn about a part of Tofino’s nautical history, told on the plaque accompanying the historic anchor in this park. In September 2018, Tla-o-qui-aht artist Joe David carved and gifted a totem pole to the community of Tofino."
