What people say
Lee Walker
"The original hippy hang out of the 1970s. Kits beach is not only a great swimming beach it's got a fun vibe! The water isn't "warm" per say, but once you're in, I promise you it's not that bad.
There's a change room and concession stand further west on the beach as well as a salt water public pool if the ocean isn't for you. "

"This cute beach is a centre of activities. A great place to tan, swim, hang out with friends, play beach sports, and so much more. Theres also a great walk around the area to have some great views over the beach, mountains, city, and water! "

"Kits beach is a favorite. It’s great for people watching, playing volleyball, or soaking up the mountain views.
There is also a small park and a massive waterfront swimming pool 💦"
