e might not think of beaches when it comes to Canada, but Vancouver’s Kitsilano or “Kits” beach is quite popular with locals and tourists alike, especially during the hot summer months. Located only 10 minutes from downtown Vancouver, it features the longest swimming pool in Canada (outdoor saltwater), a playground and beach volley, tennis and basketball courts and a lifeguard from May to September.
But there is much more to do in Vancouver: close to Kits, you will find Vanier Park, where you can fly kites, check out the H. R. MacMillan Space Centre, or take in the Beach Shakespeare Festival. Or take a ferry to Granville Island to find a market especially designed for kids, then spend the day at the water park. And if that’s not enough, take a horse-drawn tour at Stanley Park in the heart of the city or visit the Vancouver Aquarium.
