If you love long walks on the beach, look no further. It may be slightly cliché, but nothing beats a romantic stroll hand-in-hand with your loved one.

Autumn weather is a perfect time for this. As the weather gets cooler and the sun sets a bit earlier, Metro Vancouver is beautiful surrounded by fall colours. So why not plan a date night that ends with a romantic walk?

Luckily for us, there are plenty of places to enjoy a date (and the scenery) at one of these seaside walks in Metro Vancouver.
