Barb and I go to Steveston about once or twice a year, and usually bring our bicycles. Being perfectly flat, all of Richmond is perfect for touring around by bike. Steveston Village is really quite distinct from the rest of Richmond. Almost stuck in time, it still has the obvious remnants of its fishing past, but seems to be in a metamorphosis stage of transforming into a modern small town with restaurants and cafes on the boardwalk beside the fishing boats.
In the evening, when the sun is going down, Steveston’s several kilometers of boardwalks and trails along the river are a nice relaxing way to wind

Steveston seems to have grown in popularity over the years as a tourist destination, and it gets pretty crowded during the summer. If you go there in the late afternoon/evenings, the crowds have thinned, and there's still plenty of sunshine hours to enjoy walking along the waterfront.
Baden Smith lives in Vancouver, Canada with wife, Barb. They share a passion for travel, and have spend most of the past dozen or so years traveling to many places around the world. Over the past few years, Baden has developed a great interest in the pursuit of cooking, and this compliments our love of dining (both inside and out), which eventually developed into their website, ExcellentAdventure.ca, launched in 2005.
