Maquabeak Park gives Coquitlam boaters a public Fraser River launch at the end of Burbidge Street, with a wooden dock, washrooms, picnic tables, and metered parking for vehicles and trailers. The launch itself is listed as free, but visitors should arrive ready for paid parking, shared dock traffic, and current DFO rules if fishing from the river.
Rocky Point Park gives paddlers a simple Burrard Inlet launch in Port Moody, with a public boat launch for hand-carried kayaks, canoes, and paddleboards plus seasonal rentals beside the ramp. Plan around paid parking, summer crowds, event closures, and tidal-water conditions before setting out toward the Port Moody Arm or Indian Arm.
Vanier Park has two separate public launch setups at the mouth of False Creek: west for trailered small boats and east for hand-launched kayaks and canoes. Short stays, no night mooring, and park parking rules shape the visit.
