Karate on the Beach
ACKU has offered summer karate camps to students for the past twenty nine years. For the last fifteen years, lucky ACKU students have made the trip to Tofino, British Columbia and trained on the world famous Wickaninnish Beach, located in the pristine Pacific Rim National Park. Each morning, we meet at 10:00 am and warm up. We then enjoy traditional ACKU karate training with the Chief Instructor and the senior instructors.
Clean, soft sand. Sounds of the ocean. Fresh air. Spectacular scenery.
Please note all participants wear the regulation ACKU uniform. Check out our Tofino Photo Gallery.

We are usually finished karate training by noon, and spend the afternoons walking on the magnificent beaches, whale watching, fishing, surfing, shopping, enjoying the world class restaurants, etc. Other optional activities include evening socializing by the fire so bring your guitars, card games and snacks!
Local Accommodations
Many of our members camp at local campgrounds - see Travel BC website. Participants also stay in several of the excellent local B & B's or hotel/motels. Some of us have booked into Crystal Cove. Ask us for details and suggestions. Remember to book Sunday, July 15, the night before the camp starts. Friday, July 20 will be a day to travel and there will be no karate training that day.
Other Details
If you have other family members who come along, but do not train karate, they are most welcome to just "hang around" near us and enjoy the beach while we train, and join us for all our other activities. This camp is designed as a family activity, and, a parent or legal guardian must accompany participants under the age of 18. This is a great vacation in a magnificent part of the world, which offers something for everyone in the family.
