1515 Discovery Street
Vancouver, British Columbia

Vancouver's best-kept secret? Summer at HI Vancouver Jericho Beach. This chill, international hostel is the perfect spot for a relaxed Vancouver home base, just 20 minutes from downtown and 10 minutes from UBC, in the middle of green and lush parkland filled with trails and bike paths. The neighbouring Jericho Beach—one of Kitsilano's favorite hangouts—has unbeatable views over downtown Vancouver and is a hotspot for paddleboarding and kayaking.

Highlights
  • Walk to the beach for amazing downtown views
  • Hike or bike the parkland's trails right by the hostel
  • Rent a paddleboard or a kayak at Jericho Beach
  • Meet people through the hostel's fun activities
