Meet your Guide Morgan

Head fishing Guide at Tofino Resort + Marina

A bit about Morgan:
​Living on a remote Gulf Island as a kid, Morgan began operating boats with his dad to get to and from school. Growing up on Vancouver Island, Morgan has been drawn to the ocean as an avid surfer and free diver, and has been a kayak guide, fishing guide, and outdoor educator for nearly a decade. With a degree in geography, he will be graduating in January to become a certified BC teacher. Morgan’s passion for nature is matched by his commitment to education.
​He’s also in a local band called The Halibut Cowboys and hopes to do the name justice this summer at Tofino Resort + Marina, wrangling some fish and having a reel good time!
