My Watermark is English Bay, BC.

If you're not from here you might not know this, but Vancouver can get HOT in the summer. I live close enough to English Bay that I can almost always find time to walk down to the beach on a hot day to cool off. I used to check the Swim Guide but it's always so clean that I don't bother anymore!

Where I grew up the water wasn't very nice to swim in, but here it's the best in the world! I was reading about the 'housing crisis' going on in Vancouver, but honestly I'd say it's worth it. I'm certainly not moving out of here, living on the ocean is priceless! What would Vancouver be if it wasn't surrounded by the water? Just an overpriced rainy city.
