Review of City of Vancouver, Beaches and...

My family of 3 visited this pool while vacationing...

My family of 3 visited this pool while vacationing in Vancouver in August. We arrived on a Tuesday at 11 am and found a parking spot right next to the pool (parking was $13 for more than 3 hrs). This is a GIGANTIC pool, the biggest I've ever seen. The pool water was super clean, the cleanest I've been in in a long time. The temp was just right and you can't even tell it is salt water. Most of the pool is around 3 to 4 ft deep, with the deepest end being 5 ft. Here are some tips and highlights:

1) Bring your own chairs as there are very few available at the pool. Also bring your own beach towels.

2) There are bathrooms and changing rooms onsite. They aren't the cleanest or the most private, but they work out fine.

3) There is a concessions stand by the pool's front entrance which serves burgers and fish and chips. The food was fine, but a bit expensive.

4) It wasn't too crowded on the Tuesday we visited, but even if it was the pool is so huge there's plenty of room.



6) Food is allowed in the pool area.

In summation, my family had a great time at the pool with no issues. A perfect afternoon day.
