Discover Kitsilano (Vancouver West)

With the iconic Kitsilano beach at your doorstep, this is the perfect paradise for those who love the ocean as much as the city. Located just outside of Downtown Vancouver (across the Burrard Street Bridge), Kits is your quintessential cool-vibe urban beach neighbourhood.

Activity Lovers, Rejoice - Kitsilano Has It All

The volley ball courts are popular in the summer, and the tennis courts often form a lineup. In the summer Kitsilano Pool will be open, but of course you can opt to swim in the ocean too. Even in the winter, you can discover die-hards performing cold plunges here. The seawall is a popular jogging route year-round, as are the bike routes that extend all the way to the top of UBC, or into Downtown or East Vancouver. 

Several fitness studios offer activities year-round. Yyoga is a Vancouver institution, or try Lagree West if you want higher heartrates. 

Eat Well, Drink Well, Shop Well

There are so many great restaurants & bars all over Kitsilano. The Local at Kits Beach is a great spot after a day in the sun, and Bimini's is famous for their trivia nights (and great beers on tap). West 4th Avenue offers greek food at Simpatico, French cuisine at Au Comptoir, and local fare at Fable Kitchen. Lululemon, Jackson Meats or Saje are just a few of many great stores you can browse along West 4th if you like to shop. 

Real Estate Options in Kitsilano, Vancouver

Kitsilano offers a varied mix of low-rise & mid rise condos, townhomes, as well as single family homes. Due to zoning restrictions and the character preservation of the neighbourhood, high-rises are very rare here, although that may change in certain pockets due to the new Broadway Skytrain being bulit.
