Kitsilano Beach ("Kits Beach") is one of Vancouver's most popular urban beaches, on the south shore of English Bay. The spot faces northwest toward the North Shore mountains. It's a very busy beach in summer — kitesurfing is very limited due to crowds and municipal restrictions. Spot mainly for windsurfing and wingfoiling outside peak hours.
Open all year round
