Situated in the heart of Canada’s Great Bear Rainforest on the shores of the Pacific Ocean, Nimmo Bay Resort is far from civilization and an otherworldly experience unlike anything else out there. Nimmo Bay Resort has all the trappings you’ve come to expect from a curated, off-the-grid expedition vacation–along with plenty of things you probably wouldn’t expect to find at a place that let you come face-to-face with bears, humpbacks and orca whales. We’re all for the seaplane rides, foraging for sea kelp and diving for urchins with their chefs or trekking into the wild with one of their wildness guides, but we’re honestly most excited about their spa and wellness options. In addition to skilled masseuses and wellness practitioners, Nimmo Bay Resort has a floating sauna that’s a short paddle or swim from shore. You can take a quick plunge in the Pacific, followed by a warming soak in their cedar hot tubs (nestled at the base of a cascading waterfall) and finish it all in the long-decked, private, floating sauna. What more could you ask for?
