Located just west of the Vancouver center. Take W 4th Ave and get to the Jericho Beach Park. Here drive to the very west end of the park.

Kitesurfer have to make sure to stay upwind to avoid landing on any other beach further east to this launch. This will cause a lot of trouble and endanger access to this beach.
