Revitalizing Horseshoe Bay Park

The District is working to revitalize Horseshoe Bay Park and create a gathering space for residents and visitors alike. The goal is to create a free-flowing connected park space from the Horseshoe Bay Pier all the way to the BC Ferries terminal.

Next steps - updated October 2020

Working drawings for the upgrades of Horseshoe Bay Park are currently in development. During this phase of the work, the District must apply for and obtain the required archaeological permits prior to breaking any ground.

The federal Fisheries Act requires construction to occur at the lowest tides of the year to minimize environmental disruptions. West Vancouver's lowest tides occur during the summer.

With consideration for these timelines, park improvements are anticipated to begin in spring or summer 2021.

Highlights of the proposed park improvements

• Continuous waterfront path
• Removal of retaining wall
• Better access to beach and water
• Picnic shelter and stage
• Large open lawn
• Seating opportunities
• New playground
• Viewing platforms
• Plaza space with water play
• Updated washroom
• Improved boat ramp

We are excited to share the park concept design with you!

The design captures ideas you shared with us at the last public meeting (in 2017) and in the previous survey (in January 2018).

Combined with input from the volunteer Horseshoe Bay Advisory Group, the updated park design features changes that address the needs of many park users.

The design is featured on page 5 of the document, however, we suggest you take a browse through all of the boards from the public meeting for a review of the:
