Vancouver Beaches

Tower Beach
+ My Favorites
Clothing optional, without the preconceptions of Wreck Beach, Tower beach starts just around the corner from Spanish Banks and keeps going. At low tides it's possible to walk all the way around Point Grey to Wreck. Try this on a stormy day, when the beach is all but deserted.

English Bay Sunset Beach
+ My Favorites
Just across the street from these beaches lies the most heavily populated corner of Canada. Is it any wonder that these beaches are always packed with sun worshippers and curio seekers who hit the end of Denman and decided to stare? At night (well, four nights in particular) this is ground zero for the Vancouver Symphony of Fire. Chances are, you've never been on a beach so crowded in your life. Get there early (like, by a few days) if you want a good seat. The closest thing to California you'll find in BC.

English Bay Beach
+ My Favorites
The glass and concrete of Denman, Davie and Beach Avenue and the natural beauty of Stanley Park come crashing together on the shores of English Bay, one of the most delightfully schizophrenic convergences around. Is it any wonder that these beaches are always packed with sun worshippers and curio seekers who hit the end of Denman and decided to stare? Always busy but never rushed.

Jericho, Lacarno and Spanish Banks Beaches
+ My Favorites
The power trio of beaches, an ironic metaphor considering Jericho's big moment in the (ahem) sun is the yearly Folk Fest. If Kits is where the beautiful people hang out, you'll find most everybody else along this stretch of beach, including religious nuts peddling their wares, sea kayakers plying the waves and a firebreathing entertainer clad only in silver thong, riding a unicycle along a rope held up by passers-by....well, I guess you had to be there. Located near UBC, these beaches crawl with twentysomething university students freed from endless Psych classes.

Wreck Beach
+ My Favorites
There's a certain air of the '60s about Wreck beach that hasn't worn off, even as subsequent generations seek to redefine Canada's most famous clothing optional beach in its own image. There's a certain anti-authority atmosphere, even as GVRD parks adopts the beach as its own, and even as police patrols have become routine (and not to bust denizens-not even the sex in pseudo-public places crowd-but to nail the perverts in the bushes watching the sex in pseudo-public places crowd...and to keep the banned substances consumption (including alcohol) in check). This is quite possibly Canada's most (in)famous beach, even if the majority of people even in Vancouver have never visited. Located along the southwest shore of Point Grey, just across the road and down the hill from the UBC museum of Anthropology. Not that there's any connection, mind you.
