Coastal communities in British Columbia, especially on the west coast of Vancouver Island and the Haida Gwaii islands, are most at risk of tsunamis. Populated areas near fault lines, like the Cascadia Subduction Zone, are particularly vulnerable due to the potential for large earthquakes triggering tsunamis. It is important for residents and visitors in these areas to be aware of evacuation routes and emergency preparedness plans.
