Kitsilano Beach Park

T'was the third Sunday of July 2011 when we went to Kitsilano Beach Park (Vancouver, BC). Kitsilano Beach Park is nowhere near a tourist-spot-resort, though you can swim in the beach, it is best known as a family picnic place. It is a perfect place if you just want to enjoy the sun, get a spectacular view, play some outdoor games, or just to eat out with your friends or family.

What I loved about this place is the variety of things that you can do without going too far way. When we went there, a beach volleyball competition took place. You can get a glimpse of what's going on in the competition because the park, though it had a lot of trees, has a vast open space area which enables people from one end to look easily at the other end of the park.

We chose a place that's both close to an open ground (for outdoor games) and the beach. Going here was a breath of fresh air because it captivates you with the view it offers, it makes you appreciate the birds and swans (or ducks) wandering close to you. Those were significant relaxing hours.
