COVID-19

Keep your distance from other people.

Practicing social distancing is essential right now. Follow the advice of the health experts. If your community has asked that you remain indoors and away from others, do so. Heading to the beach should only be considered an option if social distancing practices can be followed. Spending a day in any crowded place is the worst thing we can do for our most vulnerable right now and will counter the efforts to curb the virus’ spread.

Water quality at this beach jointly monitored by Metro Vancouver and the Pacific Spirit Park Society (PSPS). Sampling is conducted by Metro Vancouver from May to October and by the Pacific Spirit Park Society from October to March.

The Pacific Spirit Park Society is a non-profit society that works with Metro Vancouver, as part of the Regional Park Partners Program.

Data is shared on Swim Guide according to these results, as soon as they become available.
