Cons
One of the main cons of Sandy Cove is the high cost of living. Due to the area's popularity and limited real estate, property prices in Sandy Cove tend to be higher than in other parts of West Vancouver. Additionally, due to the hilly terrain, some areas of the neighborhood can be difficult to navigate for those with mobility issues. Furthermore, Sandy Cove is located on the south side of Marine Drive, which can make it difficult to reach by car, especially during rush hour. Lastly, due to the area's popularity, parking can be limited, which can be an inconvenience for residents and visitors alike.
