Second Beach, Beach in Stanley Park, Vancouver, Canada
Second Beach stretches along the western edge of Stanley Park, offering a sandy shore with dedicated swimming areas and mountain views across the water.
The beach underwent major development in 1932 with the construction of an outdoor swimming pool, marking the beginning of its transformation into a recreational destination.
During summer evenings, Second Beach transforms into an outdoor cinema venue where thousands gather for weekly film screenings under the stars.
The heated outdoor pool operates from May to September with lifeguard supervision, charging admission fees of 7 dollars for adults and 3.50 dollars for children.
From June to September 2024, Second Beach will permit controlled alcohol consumption for adults over 19, making it among the first Vancouver beaches with this regulation.
