The kids (ages 2.5, 5, 7, 7) loved it with a capital "L". This one has one of the tallest rope climbers and an insanely large beach for wading and building sandcastles. They had to be dragged away only because we had to eat. The playground is conveniently within sight of the picnic tables, allowing grown ups to relax in the shade while the kids go wild. The washrooms / changing rooms are large with warm outdoor showers to rinse off.
Easy parking, long nature trails, washrooms, picnic tables, easy access to the beach, when the tide is out there are lots of pools for children to run through. Dawn to dusk park. Fantastic view, well maintained.
Driftwood, soft sand and a damn cold ocean. BC style! Friendly locals! Found a jellyfish. Kids loved building driftwood forts and even braved the Pacific Ocean chills.
A little busy but always fun. Get there early to get parking, and simply enjoy the beach. If you get there at low tide it is great for the kids.
One of the few beaches that allows fires and cooking in the rings provided. Great for families and functions in reserved areas. Wheelchair accessible playground for the children. Shallow water for safe swimming. Beautiful scenery of ocean, Mount Baker and Mount Ranier. Food at concession is only so-so. Bring your own.
Superb beach and just far enough away from the city to dissuade people from squatting there. Still, if you don't get there early on a Saturday or Sunday, you may find all of the wonderful shady parts claimed by large family gatherings of Europeans, Asians and that whole melting pot of our culture these days.A great place to bring your mountain bike too as there is a lovely path along the waters edge that can be circumnavigated in less than an hour. This is definitely a kids-friendly beach.
I was at Centennial Beach in Tsawwassen yesterday with my granddaughters. On a sunny day, when it's not too windy, it's a beautiful quite spot with a large parking lot, excellent nature trails for long or short walks and a great activity play area for young children. The beach is not very sandy, but the whole Park is very well maintained & patrolled. There is a restaurant with picnic tables on site & clean washrooms. Very quite during the week days & the Park is open from dawn to dusk.
Perfect for picnic during nice weather, you can go in the ocean and it is pretty warm and shallow. The Boundary Trail goes a long ways around the bay. You can walk, run or bike it. Very nice spectacular views.
Nice quiet area tucked away from the main road . Depending on the time you are there stop by near the ferries for an excellent sun set view.The beach is not very sandy & great for long walks. Small restaurant with great food.
