Jericho Sailing Centre Vancouver
Sailing, lunch and beach
Home of The Gallery Patio & Grill, this has one of the best patios in Vancouver because of the unobstructed view of downtown and the mountains, along with all the boats out on English Bay. Unfortunately at this time of the year the patio is closed but the sailing club still has events happening throughout the year.
But that's not all at the Jericho Sailing Centre has to offer, you can also take advantage of the sailing, wind surfing, kayaking and rowing classes that are all open to the public and run well into October.
Once the fall and winter starts to really come in they move some activities, like the concerts, indoors but it's still worth it to check their site before you go down and see what they have on the go. Regardless it's a good destination if you are walking or biking the seawall to or from downtown.
