Beacon Hill Park is a 75 ha (190 acres) park located along the shore of Juan de Fuca Strait in Victoria, British Columbia that is popular both with tourists and locals. The park contains a number of amenities including woodland and shoreline trails, two playgrounds, a waterpark, playing fields, a children's farm, tennis and pickleball courts, many ponds, and landscaped gardens. The name of the park refers to Beacon Hill, a hill located at the park's southern end.
