Thoughts:
This is a great place to visit and spend some time if you are in the area. There is a 1.2km walking trail around the perimeter of the park that will take about 20 minutes to walk around if you are taking your time. This is a great place to come fly a kite as there is always a breeze. If you are visiting Steveston Village Garry Point Park is a must see at either the beginning or end of your visit.
Pros:
Easy gravel trail for walking, and large open path. Art and information plaques to read on your visit. Great views and large open field if you want to stay for a BBQ or picnic. Free parking at the park.
Cons:
Can't swim in the river as the current is too strong through here although there are sandy beaches. Allways windy so could be a bit cool. No tables or picnic areas.
Hours:
Parking is open from dawn to dusk.
