A favourite with Vancouver pioneers when in the 1880s this was the beach to go to for church social, family groups and of course, to cool off. This was also the site of the city's first draw & fill pool; an outer concrete wall with huge locking gates, captured the water at high tide. After a few days the water was warmer and made for lovely swimming. At the end of each week the pool gates were opened at low tide releasing the week's supply sort of water and making ready for the next high tide of clean, cool water. In 1995 the old pool, which failed to meet new health standards, was replaced by a new, graduated depth, heated pool. It is a beautiful facility attracting length swimmers, casual dippers and children alike.
