Ten minutes through never-logged Douglas firs to warm granite bluffs above the Point Atkinson lighthouse and Howe Sound.

More infoLighthouse Park has views that make first-timers slightly annoyed it took them so long. A ten-minute walk through towering, never-logged Douglas firs, and the trees simply stop: you're on warm granite bluffs above the Point Atkinson lighthouse with Howe Sound spread out and Bowen Island in the middle distance. Find a flat slab, sit, watch the freighters. Parking fills on sunny days, so go early or aim for sunset.
It's a gentle ten-minute walk through old-growth firs to the lookout, so claim a slab of warm granite and watch the freighters drift across Howe Sound. Budget 90 minutes to two hours, and note parking is paid and fills fast on sunny days, so come early or late. Low light on the rocks is the move; bring a layer, the bluffs get breezy.
