Cliff jumping into the ocean is so ideal here
Simple, Straightforward & Easy Access
Great spot right outside of Vancouver. Not a ton to explore but there are solid views abound. As other reviewers state, walk the rock bridge to the island for the best views.
Go Out To The Island!
My sister and I went to this park in January on a sunny day and decided to venture out to the little island. Definitely worth it! We did not plan it well with the tides so we had to wade in water up to our hips, but exploring the quaint little succulent-covered rocks of the island and seeing otters and baby birds made up for it!
