***Fred Tibbs Rental Condominiums**

THE SEASHELL: The building is named after Fred Tibbs, an eccentric British pioneer who arrived in 1905. He purchased a small island off the Tofino shore, calling it “Dream Island.” According to local folklore, Tibbs was known to climb to the top of a lone spruce tree on his island and play his clarinet—a charmingly unique figure in Tofino's history.
