West Vancouver
Welcome to West Vancouver, a breathtaking hideaway nestled between British Columbia's majestic Coast Mountains and the sparkling Salish Sea. Our tranquil climate sets the stage for endless adventure, with cozy, wet winters and refreshingly cool, dry summers.

Our city is steeped in rich history. Originally home to the Squamish Nation, it has since become a distinct district, having marked its independence in 1912. Today, West Vancouver gleams with an upscale, leisurely charm reflecting our diverse mix of professionals, retirees, and a strongly established Caucasian community.

Our local economy thrives on a robust residential sector, featuring some of the priciest, yet most exclusive properties throughout Greater Vancouver. Tiny art galleries, charming boutiques, and quaint eateries further add to the city's unmistakable charm.

Experience a world of outdoor beauty at hidden gems like the iconic Lighthouse Park or enjoy the serenity at Cypress Provincial Park. Looking for a farther escape? Horseshoe Bay Ferry Terminal is your gateway to enchanting Vancouver Island and the Sunshine Coast.

Not just rich in breathtaking beauty, West Vancouver boasts a vibrant cultural scene. Discover local talents at the West Vancouver Art Museum and the Silk Purse Arts Centre, or join in on community-wide celebrations at the annual Harmony Arts Festival. Aboard this cultural journey, treat yourself with our locally sourced seafood, featuring delicacies such as Pacific salmon and BC spot prawns.

The West Vancouver School District proudly upholds our commitment to quality education, complemented by the prestigious West Vancouver Memorial Library for those seeking knowledge. Despite a lack of direct highways, the city ensures ease of access via the Trans-Canada Highway and reliable public transit services.

Endless adventures await outdoor enthusiasts – hike through wilderness trails, bike the mountains, or swim in our clear waters. West Vancouver invites you to explore, relax, and immerse yourself in a blend of history, culture, and unspoiled nature. Come and create your unforgettable experiences with us!
