Lighthouse Park

Named for the Point Atkinson Lighthouse located on its grounds, this coastal and rugged park is popular for day hikes. A beautiful old growth temperate rainforest along Burrard Inlet offers several easy walking trails with beautiful panoramic views.

We went on a weekday morning and it was not very crowded, I could see that it would be popular in a sunny summer weekend though. We explored the paths and descended to East Beach and climbed the rocks at low tide. The kids learned about lighthouses and liked exploring the beach. By the time we left mid-afternoon the parking lot was jammed, so plan ahead!

Prospect Point Lighthouse

Reviewed By Chrisinkingwood2 - Houston, United States

This can be a wonderful place to watch the sunset or just enjoy the ships that pass by. The actual lighthouse is a bit of a hike down from the point observation area. Great views of Lions Gate Bridge. There is a nice gift shop and coffee shop here.

Brockton Point Lighthouse

Reviewed By M1chtopher

We were riding bikes along the seawall and this was the perfect stop to see the ships in the harbour. You can go under the lighthouse but it is not open to go in.
