Beaches in Vancouver

Sun, sand and salt water practically surrounds Vancouver on all sides! If you're looking for a bustling beach to people watch, or a quiet little spot to plonk down a blanket and have a picnic, you're in luck! Vancouver has more beach than you will know what to do with. If you're brave enough, you can even take to the beach on New Year's day and participate in the Polar Bear Swim at English Bay.
