🌅 Sunsets at Garry Point Park are nothing short of magical—many locals consider it the best place in Richmond to watch the day melt into the Salish Sea.
🌇 Why It’s So Special
- Unobstructed Western Views: The park sits at the southwestern tip of Richmond, offering panoramic vistas across the water toward Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands.
- Golden Hour Glow: The wide-open sky and reflective shoreline create a canvas for brilliant oranges, purples, and fiery reds—especially in summer and early fall.
- Natural Seating: Driftwood logs and grassy knolls make for perfect sunset perches.
- Kite Silhouettes: The park’s breezy conditions often mean colorful kites dancing across the sky as the sun dips low.
Best Sunset Spots
- Head to the southwestern edge of the park near the Fishermen’s Memorial Needle for the most dramatic views.
- The West Dyke Trail, which connects Garry Point to Terra Nova Park, offers a 6 km shoreline stroll that lets you follow the sunset as it unfolds.
🍦 Sunset Pairings
- Grab fish and chips from Pajo’s or a scoop of pistachio gelato from Timothy’s in nearby Steveston Village—just a short walk away.
Garry Point sunsets are a soul-soothing experience.
Thank you for your visit and any faves or comments are always greatly appreciated!
