Known forswimmingsailingwindsurfkitsilano-adjacent
A laid-back, grassy park-fronted beach whose small protected bay is deeper and calmer than most, making it one of the better spots in the city for an actual swim. It's a favorite for windsurfing and sailing out of the Jericho Sailing Centre, plus easygoing sunsets over the water with the North Shore mountains behind. The sand is coarser here and it gets busy on hot weekends.
