Westwind is a quiet, established residential neighbourhood in western West Vancouver, situated on the slopes above Horseshoe Bay and the western reaches of Marine Drive. The neighbourhood's elevated position provides many properties with views of Howe Sound, Bowen Island, and the mountains of the Sunshine Coast, giving it a distinctive west-facing outlook that is different in character from the downtown Vancouver views typical of central and eastern West Van.

The streets of Westwind are calm and residential, with a mix of post-war and later-era detached homes on good-sized lots shaded by mature trees. The Horseshoe Bay Village is minutes away for waterfront dining and the BC Ferries terminal, while Gleneagles Elementary and the Gleneagles Community Centre are also close at hand for family amenities.

Prices in Westwind typically range from $2.2M to $4.5M for detached homes, positioning it as a mid-market entry into western West Vancouver with Howe Sound views at prices that represent good value relative to the more expensive central West Van neighbourhoods. For buyers who prefer the west end's maritime character and Howe Sound orientation, Westwind delivers.
