Port Moody is a city in the Vancouver eastern suburbs of British Columbia, Canada. Set on the eastern end of the Burrard Inlet, it has some fine waterfront property. It's primarily a residential community, just close enough to commute to Vancouver for work. High-rise developments on the water, such as NewPort Village, have also spurred retail and entertainment districts.

Small park that offers views of the Burrard Inlet. It's also the start of the Shoreline Trail and the first of a string of five linked parks along Port Moody's waterfront. There's a pier, seasonal outdoor pool, skate park and some walking/biking trails.
The park features several hiking trails and two beaches.
Buntzen Lake is a hydroelectric reservoir and is open to the public as a park. This park is a great spot to hang out for a day. You can just relax and hang out on the beach, BBQ and admire the scenery or do something and take advantage of the lake and trails. The park is very popular with locals and if you plan to drive in on a sunny weekend, it's best to arrive by 11AM/noon as the parking lot fills up fast. It has a beach and several hiking trails.
Well-priced casual dining with a varied menu.
Good fish and chips, very enjoyable on nice day if you are at Rocky Point. Fish options include cod (cheapest), salmon and halibut (expensive). There are also burgers, hot dogs and veggie burgers/dogs.
Upscale dining. Located at Rocky Point with view of Burrard Inlet and the Coast Mountains.
