In this episode of Our Native Land we travel to Bamfield, British Columbia, and go on an adventure with Kiixin Tours. Kiixin is the only known traditional First Nations village remaining on the west coast of southern B.C, with significant standing house remains. Join us on this tour with our guide Wisqii as we adventure through the rainforest, down to a secret beach, and learn all about it.
