A statement from Mayor Martin Davis, on behalf of Tahsis Council, says 鈥淎s much as we want you to experience the natural beauty of this area, this is not the time to visit Tahsis and the Nootka Sound region.鈥�
Tahsis is located 155 km west of Campbell River on Vancouver Island鈥檚 west coast and is reached by paved highway and gravel logging road.
鈥淟ike elsewhere, non-essential businesses and public services are closed to support social distancing measures which are critical to prevent the spread of virus transmission. With Tahsis having very limited medical resources and a proportionately high number of vulnerable persons, we must do all we can to protect our community from COVID-19.
鈥淲e have survived mill closures, wildfires, landslides, floods and personal tragedies. To keep our community safe and healthy, our residents are 鈥榓ll in鈥� 鈥� consistently practising social distancing and self-isolation. Tahsis will still be standing 鈥� and thriving 鈥� when this pandemic ends, but we need you to do your part by staying away.
鈥淭housands of people visit Tahsis for world class sport fishing, diving, caving, hiking the Nootka Trail and other local trails or just to experience our amazing community spirit. COVID-19 won鈥檛 change any of these, so please venture out our way when it鈥檚 the right time. We鈥檇 love to see you then!鈥�
