Garry Point Park Sunset

Seventy-five free oceanfront acres at Steveston's tip, aimed directly at the best sunset in Richmond.

Garry Point Park sits at the very southwest corner of Richmond, a 75-acre expanse of open grass, driftwood logs and sandy shoreline pointed straight across the Salish Sea toward Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands, as if the park's one job is to give you the best possible view of the sunset. It is very good at this job. Claim a driftwood log, split whatever you picked up from the Steveston wharf, and watch the light go gold over the water. Wander the Fisherman's Memorial needle and the small Kuno Japanese garden while you wait for the show. It's free, it's flat, and it has a remarkable talent for making a spontaneous 'let's go watch the sunset' plan look like something you thought of three days in advance.
