Gibsons has 20 parks, beach accesses, trails and natural areas for public use and enjoyment.
Please note that all dogs must be on leash and under control when using public lands. An off leash area for friendly dogs is available at the area known as White Tower Park located behind the Aquatic Facility. Unfriendly dogs must remain on leash and under control at all times. Everyone is responsible for their pet companion, and must clean up any waste that is deposited on public lands (failure to do so is subject to loss of use and a fine for offenders).
Parks
We plan and maintain parks and open spaces ranging from local neighbourhood parks to community parks within the Town of Gibsons boundaries. Many parks include amenities such as playground equipment, sport courts and fields, washrooms and seating.
Community Parks
Our community parks provide for facilities, organized sport, events and leisure activities. Please refer to the map for locations.
