Part of Greater Vancouver
and bordered by Coquitlam and
Burnaby, Port Moody is only about
30 minutes away from the Vancouver's downtown core, making it optimal for commuting

encourage a relaxed, outdoor lifestyle that is healthy, creative and family-friendly.
Port Moody gained early recognition by becoming the most western stop for the
Canadian Pacific Railway in 1879. The original train station now houses the

crafts. The first passenger train to the town was welcomed in July 4, 1886,
a date that is celebrated each year during Golden
Spike Days, events of which are held at Rocky
