The Cessna 172, carrying a pilot and two tourists, went down between Port Alberni and Bamfield, local media reported Sunday.
The bodies of two men and a woman were later recovered. The group had traveled from Lake Cowichan to the fishing village of Bamfield and were on the return trip, police officials said.
A Buffalo aircraft and a Cormorant helicopter were dispatched to the crash site. The plane's emergency locator has been picked up by satellites.
The cause of the accident is under investigation.
