Kitsilano Beach

Kitsilano Beach is one of Vancouver's most popular waterfront areas. It's a buzzing place from early spring until late autumn, although many people pass along the seashore here year round. The beach is the highlight of Kits Point, a small area of land jutting into Burrard Inlet, and rich with many facets to it.
This gallery has been slowly expanding since 2008. The most recent images are at the end, or bottom of the page.
