My husband and I came here for his 40th birthday. We got a couples massage!
It was so peaceful, relaxing and loved how thorough everything was. Jess and Isabel made sure to make us feel as comfortable as possible. The beds were nice and warm, my husband said Isabel’s pressure was amazing! Jess relieved so much of my back pain. I almost fell asleep it was so relaxing!
Definitely will be back if we are ever in Tofino and needing massages again!

I had the most amazing massage at By the Sea Massage & Bodywork. Candace was such a skilled practitioner, and I felt completely transformed after 90 min on her table. A combination of deep relaxation with remarkable muscle release,
I could not have asked for anything better. And all of this in a beautifully curated space with attention to all the small and important details.

By the Sea was very professional and so relaxing.
Isabel gave my husband a wonderful massage, and Chris massaged me. He focused on my hip and back, where my injuries were, and I left feeling like a new person! Definitely recommend getting a couples massage.
Love, love, love it!

I’ve had many massages in my lifetime for many reasons- health, injury, wellness.
Today was perhaps the most authentic massage I’ve ever enjoyed. Knowledgeable, intuitive, capable, authentic and genuinely caring.
To have a couples massage for our fortieth-anniversary celebration took it to a spring level. Thank you, Isabel.

The only word I can use to best describe my hot stone massage by Jessica at By the Sea was exceptional.
From the moment I met her to when I left, she was professional, caring about my specific needs and provided the best massage I have ever had.

My husband and I had a couples massage. The atmosphere was very relaxing, the treatment was fantastic.
Chris read over my notes before the appointment and knew my problem areas. I appreciated that. Overall we had a great experience, and when we're back in Tofino - we will definitely get a second treatment.
Highly recommend.
