CNN Travel recently included Kitsilano Pool in Vancouver in its round-up of the world’s best tidal and oceanside pools.

Located along Kitsilano Beach, the opening of the Vancouver outdoor pool marks the unofficial start of summer for many residents of the Lower Mainland. The popular pool measures in at a whopping 137 metres in length, which makes it the longest swimming pool in Canada. It also has three slides and offers breathtaking views of the ocean, the mountains, Kits Beach, and the skyline of Vancouver’s West End.
