Beach Guide

Locarno Beach

Vancouver, BC

Locarno Beach is located on the west side of Jericho Park and the gorgeous views of Downtown Vancouver and the North Shore Mountains draw your immediate attention.

Vancouver's clean, quite and uncrowded beach.

Located between the Spanish Banks Beaches and Jericho Beach, Locarno Beach is that perfect little gem for a day of sand and surf.

The biggest perk to this little sandy haven is it’s a designated quiet beach, meaning no loud sound systems are allowed, making it an ideal spot for a truly relaxing day at the beach. 

Located in Vancouver’s Point Grey neighborhood, Locarno is a peaceful getaway in comparison to Vancouver’s busier city beaches. This hidden gem checks off all the boxes for a perfect beach day; the hot sandy beach, shaded park area, bbq’s, concession stand and beach volleyball courts.

The bottom line.  Locarno Beach is a perfect getaway from the hustle and bustle of other Vancouver beaches on a hot, sunny day.  There’s plenty of space for everyone, the views are outstanding, and you don’t have to worry about loud groups or music to take away your beach experience.
