Though llegal, venturing down to Wreck Beach in the middle of the night is a must for any UBC student, or Vancouverite. The beach is great for campfires burning notes after exams, and sing alongs, and is never patrolled by the RCMP.

It is generally unsafe to descend the Wreck Beach Stairs alone, however, as there are Urban Legends of people being abducted from them by psychopathic ne'er-do-wells.

A wonderful place to go climbing and exploring, close to sunset, (for a REAL treat climb along the cliff above Wreck Beach, until you find the old oak, that juts out of the cliff side, and forms a perfect bench, where you can dangle your feet off into infinity and watch the glorious sunset, with just enough room to snuggle with a special someone) Wreck beach is only to be braved during warm sunny days, if you have no fear of old fat white men in vests. Just vests.
