Lynn Canyon Park
Second only to Whytecliff for cliff diving, on weekends the rocky area north of the suspension bridge teems with people, from naked two-year-olds (and their accompanying parents) to mahnly men doing mahnly things like leaping from the cliffs near the falls. (Though cliff diving is discouraged here, it's not outlawed.) Because this area is comprised of loose round stones, be a dear and leave the glass bottles at home. (Broken glass and naked two year-olds is a bad combination.) Not really a beach as such, but you couldn't tell from the way people act around here. From suspension bridge, head upstream to first set of falls along trails on either side of Lynn Creek. The falls are tucked away behind a cliff, but you'll recognize the flat flood plain-like area of rocks and (on a sunny weekend) the plethora of people.

Whytecliff Park
Despite occasional bad water quality and eternal parking problems, Whytecliff remains one a favorite beach, (though waterfront park would be more accurate) because of its many moods. The rather rocky strip of shore that passes for the beach is usually packed, but there's always some uninhabited niche somewhere on the rocky cliffs that give the park its name. There are plenty of cliffs to jump off of, for big-time adrenaline rush, or to sit atop and contemplate the setting sun. The sheltered cove is great for swimming...when the algae isn't in bloom.
Address: 7000 block of Marine Drive West Vancouver BC Canada
