West Point Grey

The bluffs of West Point Grey offer some of the best views in the entire city, thanks to natural terracing that cascades from West 16th Avenue down to Jericho Beach and Spanish Banks. To the south, the sprawling Pacific Spirit Regional Park offers a quick escape from the rush of the city. Parks with soccer fields, baseball diamonds, and volleyball courts abound, and West Point Grey Academy is a choice school for students from Junior Kindergarten to Grade 12. When in the area, drop in to comfort food staple Burgoo for a selection of hearty soups and bread. For dessert treat yourself to the balsamico sundae, a vanilla bean ice cream with balsamic macerated strawberries.
