Belcarra Park is a fantastic spot for a family picnic or a day out in nature. The picnic areas are well-maintained and offer plenty of space for large groups. The scenic pier is a highlight, providing stunning views of the water and surrounding mountains—perfect for a leisurely stroll or some fishing.

However, the washrooms were not as clean as expected, which was a bit of a downside. Despite this, the overall experience was wonderful, and I would definitely recommend this park for its beauty and tranquility.

It's a great place to enjoy nature, have a picnic and go walking in the woods. This review is for the beach, not the lake east, during the summer season. There is a great view of the harbour overlooking North Vancouver, and you can feel the breeze coming from the shore. There are picnic tables, a playground, flushable bathrooms, a concession stand, a kayak rental business and a totem pole. There are also water fountains near the public shelter, and the picnic shelter provides space for a large gathering. There are large trees that provide shade and a beach where you can go on a dock and watch people fish. Since the water is an ocean, you can find barnacles, seaweed and crabs on the beach. There are also forested trails that leads to open and flat rock formations you can sit on at the south and a quiet and serene woodland trail leading north. Only downsides are that parking is limited during busy season, it is difficult to find a place to picnic in the shade during a hot day, a considerable wait time for bathroom use and the floating dock is not suitable for people with motion sickness. There are also rules you have to follow set out by Metro Vancouver like keeping your dog on a leash and keeping noise down. We noticed a park staff telling a park visitor to leash their dog and a group playing a game with loud music to be told to turn the music off or face a fine. The Parks Canada sign is by a trail south of the beach and the lake image was taken north in the woods.

We went there today and which is a sunny day!
Clean beach ,bathroom on site and pay parking. Everybody should know if you come a little late in the afternoon you won’t be able to find the parking spot. The best time to come is about 6:30 am. Or 7:00am otherwise you have to park away from the lake about 500 meter -1 km. Away and walk to the lake witch is a bit to much for walking and carrying stuff for picnic.
There is the small food shop for you if you don’t want to bring your lunch box , the shop open about 12:30 pm and probably busy and lineup for quite long. Better way to carry your meal with you. Safety place to visit the security always checking up time to time and restrict for drinking ..
For animal lover you could enjoy the goose walking and disturbing your food 😆 please don’t feed them with fries or grease food to safe our goose friends .. Highly recommend this place for your family weekend you will love it..

Doesn’t get better than this. Please visit this magical land. This feels like BC. Only negative is pay parking. $3 for 1 hour, $5 for 2. Free parking from 7-10am. Okay one other note, only open from 7am - 8pm. Seems silly to have such an incredible sunset view and the close it for sunset.

Beautiful place with a nice selection of hiking/walking trails. Get there early even on a weekday to be able to find parking.I couldn't give it 5 stars though because the noise pollution can get quite bad with trains and construction and boat motors its hard to get the peace you would seek from a natural environment.

Beautiful place. Its safer to kayak with a smaller lake kayak earlier in the day. Parking costs around $12.50 per car and I don't think there's any way to check if the parking lot is full. They need to fix that flaw because it's a very long drive in there only to find out there's no parking and remember to get the app HONK. That's the one I used. I believe you can use debit visa/Mastercard and all other forms on online payment like google pay etc. Not sure about pay pal but it would all be on the app. There no cash payment option.
