Kitsilano Beach
Park, Swimming Pool
One of the most sought-after beaches in Vancouver, Kitsilano Beach (known as Kits Beach to Vancouver residents) is not just a beach. There’s ample green space for sunbathers and several volleyball courts established on the sand. There’s also the Kitsilano Pool, which is Vancouver’s only saltwater swimming pool, and snack options, such as Starbucks, across the road. The walk from Kits around the bend to Granville Island is a local favorite, due to its views of the city and surrounding mountains.
