Sunset Beach

Sunset Beach is right here. This sheltered strip of sand features calm waters, concessions, and even a grassy field for those who don’t feel like slipping into a pair of sandals! Note: This 9-mile-long tour covers the essentials of Vancouver Beach in 1-2 hours.

Duration: 10 minutes

Burrard Street Bridge

We’re coming up on the oldest bridge in Vancouver, the Burrard Street Bridge. The beautiful exterior of this bridge actually hides some bizarre secrets. Hidden within the south tower is an entire stairwell, which once connected the bridge to Vanier Park. It was sealed off nearly 100 years ago, but here’s the thing… nobody knows why!

Duration: 10 minutes

Kitsilano Beach Park

Kitsilano Beach Park is coming up on our right. Keep your eyes open for spectacular views of the beach and English Bay. If you have time to stop, don’t miss the heated outdoor pool, which is also Canada’s longest pool at 137 meters! The pool is saltwater and is open seasonally from May to September.

Duration: 10 minutes

Kitsilano

Welcome to Kitsilano! Known to the locals as “Kits,” many consider this neighborhood one of the most desirable places to live in British Columbia, especially for young professionals.

Duration: 10 minutes

Jericho Beach Park

We’re about to pass Jericho Beach Park. Jericho Beach derives its name from Jeremiah Rogers, a 19th century logger who once worked in this area.

Duration: 10 minutes

Locarno Park

Directly ahead is Locarno Beach, perfect for a peaceful getaway. This beach is actually quiet by law! Amplified sound is not permitted, so don’t expect to encounter many beach parties here. Park in any of the lots coming up if you want to visit, or continue driving.

Duration: 10 minutes

Spanish Banks Beach Park

This beach is the most spacious in the Vancouver area. Its sandy banks stretch a mile along the far western edge of Vancouver City. Because of its proximity to the University of British Columbia, the beach attracts college students looking for a break from the books, as well as other adventurous types hoping for some good waves.

Duration: 10 minutes

University of British Columbia

We’re heading toward the University of British Columbia. In many ways, the story of Vancouver’s largest university mirrors the story of the city as a whole, especially in regards to the university’s relationship with First Nations people.

Duration: 10 minutes

Nitobe Memorial Garden

Look for the traditional Japanese garden on our left as we pass. This is Nitobe Memorial Garden, and calling it a Japanese garden isn’t just lip service. When Japan’s 125th emperor, Akihito strolled through the garden in 2009, he reportedly said, “I am in Japan” because of the authenticity of the garden.

Duration: 10 minutes

UBC Botanical Garden & Centre for Plant Research

That brings us to the conclusion of our tour at the UBC Botanical Garden. From here, you can explore the famous Treewalk, or just stroll around the garden itself! If you haven’t already taken my tour of Vancouver Downtown, don’t forget to give it a shot to see more of this amazing city!

Duration: 10 minutes
