๐ โโSasamat Lakeโโ Located in Port Moody, BC (set GPS to White Pine Beach) Ample paid parking available ๐ ฟ๏ธ This hidden gem is perfectly situated - not too far from the city, yet feels like a world awayโจ The day we visited, the crowd was just right - peaceful without being empty, with great parking, full cell service, a handy snack shack, and clean washrooms. Absolute summer dream vibes โ๏ธ ๐ถ โโLake Loop Trailโโ The 1-hour beginner-friendly trail is pure joy - scenic water views at every turn, making the walk feel like a therapy session ๐ฟ๐โ๏ธ We spotted swimmers and divers (no lifeguards on duty though!) ๐โ๏ธ The trail's gentle elevation keeps it interesting without being exhausting. โ ๏ธ โโTip:โโ The sandy beach and grassy areas are compact - arrive early on weekends to snag prime picnic spots before the crowds roll in ๐งบ๐ ๐ โโSummer Essentialsโโ Bring your swimsuit (water's refreshing!)
