Rocky Point gets all the credit for its sunsets, but the daytime version has more going on than the photos suggest. In summer a free spray park counts, in the Lower Mainland, as a genuine event. The skate and bike trials park is regionally famous, meaning the riders are skilled, so bring a bench, pick a skater, and score them out of ten with rising conviction.
