The size of the island is underestimated. It's like a country itself, and it is covered with rainforest, thick rainforest and as the name says. It's raining a lot! However Vancouver Island is filled with liberal and enviorntmentally environmentally friendly people, hippy-like if you will, therefore hitching here is very common.Some parts of the island are quite rural and it can be easy to get stuck after dark in the soaking wet, so make sure to try to get where you're going early on in the day while there's still light.
