BITCHES AND BARRELS PACKING LIST 

You’re coming to camp and surf in Tofino! Hooray! But what should you bring? Below is a detailed packing list for everything you will need to enjoy four days and three nights of fun times by the ocean!

Surf gear:

• Wetsuit — 5/4 or 4/3 (July/August only).

• Booties

• Gloves — optional in summer, but nice to have as a backup.

• Surfboard — if you are not sure what you need, chances are you should lean towards a learner board. 9’-10’ soft-tops (aka: confidence builders) are wicked boards to progress on.

• Bag or plastic tote for your wet wetsuit.

• Leash

• Cold Water Wax (for non-soft tops).

• Fin(s) and fin key

• Sunscreen/zinc

CAMPING GEAR:

• Tent (1-2 person tents are preferred as sites are shared).

• Tarp and rope.

• Sleeping bag.

• Sleeping pad.

• Pillow.

• Ear plugs - sites are shared and Surf Grove is a busy campground. If you’re sensitive to noise when sleeping, we recommend packing a pair of ear plugs.

• Rain gear — Tofino is in the rainforest. Even if the forecast seems promising, we recommend packing rain gear.

• Warm clothes — even in the summer Tofino typically does not get insanely hot. The winds also pick up in the afternoon, so it is a good idea to prepare for cooler afternoons/evenings.

• Headlamp.

• Stove/cooking gear — you will be responsible for your own breakfasts/lunches/snacks, so if you are going to be cooking/heating up food, please remember your stove, pots, pans, and fuel.

• Plate, bowl, mug, and cutlery — so you can enjoy our delicious dinners!

• Dish soap and sponge - so you can clean your dishes after our delicious dinners.

Life gear:

• Water Bottle.

• Towel for changing/hanging out on the beach.
