Point Roberts attractions
The western most point separating Point Roberts from Canada is the last mainland point on the longest undefended border in the world. The spot is marked by a large monument honoring several UK soldiers from the 1800's. The monument is in a small park with a bench looking out over the Georgia Straight, the Gulf Islands, and Vancouver Island.
Roosevelt Drive, (North on Marine Drive until a 'T' intersection with Roosevelt Dr.). Always open. Along this unassuming lane, the "undefended international border" is concretely visible. A narrow trench and periodic metre-high obelisks mark the boundary. To the north, back yards and wood fences of suburban Tsawwassen homes crowd in. To the south, groves of trees reveal the pastoral spirit of Point Roberts. No forbidding wall or cleared no-man's-land mars the scene. Free. �
