The best route here isn't built with concrete.

Instead, the tide reveals a rocky path leading from Whytecliff Park to Whyte Islet in West Vancouver, Canada.

A few hours later, the sea quietly covers the crossing again, making timing part of the experience.

This shoreline has drawn visitors for generations.

The tide opens the path; wet rocks keep you humble.

The reward is a sweeping view back towards the beach and the hillside homes of Gleneagles.
